- Abstract
In this paper, we study distortion of various well-known embeddings of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups into unitriangular groups . In particular, we show that there is no undistorted embeddings of -dimensional Heisenberg group into . We also provide a polynomial time algorithm for finding distortion of a given subgroup of .
