We obtain a Liouville-type theorem for cylindrical viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear CR invariant equations on the Heisenberg group. As a by-product, we also prove a comparison principle with finite singularities for viscosity solutions to more general fully nonlinear operators on the Heisenberg group.

We give an explicit description of polynomial growth solutions to some sub-elliptic operators of divergence form with [Formula: see text]-periodic coefficients on the Heisenberg group, where the periodicity has to be meant with respect to the Heisenberg geometry. We show that the polynomial growth solutions are necessarily polynomials with [Formula: see text]-periodic coefficients. We also prove the Liouville-type theorem for the Dirichlet problem to these sub-elliptic equations on an unbounded domain on the Heisenberg group, show that any bounded solution to the Dirichlet problem must be constant.
