We are interested in characterizing the compact sets of the Heisenberg group
that are contained in a curve of finite length. Ferrari, Franchi and Pajot
recently gave a sufficient condition for those sets, adapting a necessary and
sufficient condition due to P. Jones in the Euclidean setting. We prove that
this condition is not necessary.
