We consider the Heisenberg group ℍⁿ = ℂⁿ × ℝ. Let ν be the Borel measure on ℍⁿ defined by $\nu \left(E\right)={\int }_{ℂⁿ}{\chi }_E(w,\phi \left(w\right))\eta \left(w\right)dw$, where $\phi \left(w\right)={\sum }_{j=1}^n{a}_j\left|w_j\right|²$, w = (w₁,...,wₙ) ∈ ℂⁿ, $a_j\in ℝ$, and η(w) = η₀(|w|²) with $\eta ₀\in C_c^{\infty }\left(ℝ\right)$. We characterize the set of pairs (p,q) such that the convolution operator with ν is $L^p\left(ℍⁿ\right)-L^q\left(ℍⁿ\right)$ bounded. We also obtain $L^p$-improving properties of measures supported on the graph of the function $\phi \left(w\right)={\left|w\right|}^{2m}$.
