Abstract

We introduce extensions of the multidimensional Heisenberg group Hn\mathbb{H}^n by two-parameter groups of dilations, and then classify the extended groups up to isomorphism, by employing Lie algebra techniques. We show that the groups are isomorphic to subgroups of the symplectic group Sp(n+1,R)\textit{Sp(}n+1,\mathbb{R}) as well as subgroups of the affine group Aff(n+1,R)\textit{Aff}(n+1,\mathbb{R}). Thus, they possess both, a metaplectic and a wavelet representation. Moreover, the metaplectic representation splits into a sum of two subrepresentations which both are equivalent to the same subrepresentation of the wavelet representation.
