Abstract

We study the following nonlocal diffusion equation in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_n$, \[ u_t(z,s,t)=J\ast u(z,s,t)-u(z,s,t), \] where $\ast$ denote convolution product and $J$ satisfies appropriated hypothesis. For the Cauchy problem we obtain that the asymptotic behavior of the solutions is the same form that the one for the heat equation in the Heisenberg group. To obtain this result we use the spherical transform related to the pair $(U(n),\mathbb{H}_n)$. Finally we prove that solutions of properly rescaled nonlocal Dirichlet problem converge uniformly to the solution of the corresponding Dirichlet problem for the classical heat equation in the Heisenberg group.
