Abstract
In this paper, we study the notion of geodesic curvature of smooth horizontal curves parametrized by arc length in the Heisenberg group that is the simplest sub-Riemannian structure. Our goal is to give a metric interpretation of this notion of geodesic curvature as the first corrective term in the Taylor expansion of the distance between two close points of the curve.
