  • Let N be the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group equipped with a left-invariant metric on N. We characterize the Jacobi fields and the conjegate points along a geodesic on N, which points out that Theorem 4 of [1] is not correct.

  • We find unit Killing vectors and homogeneous geodesics on the Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathbf{a}{\oplus}_p\mathbf{r}$, where $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{r}$ are abelian Lie algebra of dimension n and 1, respectively.
