Abstract: In this note we present a notion of harmonic oscillator on the Heisenberg group $mathbf{H}_n$ which forms the natural analogue of the harmonic oscillator on $mathbb{R}^n$ under a few reasonable assumptions: the harmonic oscillator on $mathbf{H}_n$ should be a negative sum of squares of operators related to the sub-Laplacian on $mathbf{H}_n$, essentially self-adjoint with purely discrete spectrum, and its eigenvectors should be smooth functions and form an orthonormal basis of $L^2(mathbf{H}_n)$. This approach leads to a differential operator on $mathbf{H}_n$ which is determined by the (stratified) Dynin-Folland Lie algebra. We provide an explicit expression for the operator as well as an asymptotic estimate for its eigenvalues.
