Review text

The author characterizes the generalized Heisenberg groups (also called \(H\)-type groups) by their geometric properties. It is proved that, if \(G\) is a nilpotent group with left invariant Riemannian metric and so that the sectional curvature of the two-planes generated by one central and one non-central vector is constant, then \(G\) is a \(H\)-type group. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0942.00034].
