Book excerpt: The authors consider the Hodge Laplacian \Delta on the Heisenberg group H_n, endowed with a left-invariant and U(n)-invariant Riemannian metric. For 0\le k\le 2n+1, let \Delta_k denote the Hodge Laplacian restricted to k-forms. In this paper they address three main, related questions: (1) whether the L^2 and L^p-Hodge decompositions, 1
