Abstract

For a stratified group GG, we construct a class of polarised Lie groups, which we call modifications of GG, that are locally contactomorphic to it. Vice versa, we show that if a polarised group is locally contactomorphic to a stratified group GG, whose Lie algebra has finite Tanaka prolongation, then it must be a modification of GG.
