Abstract. This work is devoted to the study of a class of Schrödinger-Poisson system with doubly critical growth on the first Heisenberg group. Utilizing the concentration-compactness principle associated with classical Sobolev space on the Heisenberg group and mountain pass theorem, we prove that the system admits multiple nontrivial solutions.
Keywords: Heisenberg group, Schrödinger-Poisson system, concentration-compactness principle, mountain pass theorem, nontrivial solutions.
