We describe the extremal positive harmonic functions for finitely supported measures on the discrete Heisenberg group: they are proportional either to characters or to translates of induced from characters.
Nous décrivons les fonctions harmoniques positives extrémales pour les mesures à support fini sur le groupe de Heisenberg discret : elles sont proportionnelles à des caractères ou à des translatées d’induites de caractères.
