Abstract
In this paper we extend a result for representations of the Additive group given in [3] to the Heisenberg group . Namely, if is greater than 2d then all -dimensional characteristic representations for can be factored into commuting products of representations, with each factor arising from a representation of the Lie algebra of , one for each of the the representation's Frobenius layers. In this sense, for a fixed dimension and large enough , all representations for look generically like representations for direct powers of it over a field of characteristic zero. The reader may consult chapter 13 of [1] for a fuller account of what follows.
