Abstract

It is well known that has the structure of solvable Lie group with left invariant metric of constant holomorphic sectional curvature. In this paper we give the full classification of all possible left invariant Riemannian metrics on this Lie group. We prove that all of these metrics are of constant negative scalar curvature and only one of them is Einstein (up to isometry and scaling). Finally, we present the relation between Ricci solitons on Heisenberg group and Einstein metric on .
