Abstract

Let \(G_n=U(n)\ltimes H_n \) be the semi-direct product of the unitary group acting by automorphisms on the Heisenberg group \(\mathbb H_n\). According to Lipsman, the unitary dual \(\widehat{G_n} \) of \(G_n \) is in one to one correspondence with the space of admissible coadjoint orbits \(\mathfrak g_n^\ddagger /G_n \) of \(G_n \). In this paper, we determine the topology of the space \(\mathfrak g_n^\ddagger /G_n \) and we show that the correspondence with \(\widehat{G_{n}} \) is a homeomorphism.
