Abstract
Several systems of differential operators are constructed and their study is commenced. These systems are generalizations, in a reasonable sense, of the Heisenberg Laplacian operators introduced by Folland and Stein. In particular, they admit large groups of conformal symmetries; various real form of the special linear groups, even special orthogonal groups, and the exceptional group of type E6 appear in this capacity.
