What do you (Norberto Bensa) mean by "providing anything similar to 
Cygwin"? Cygwin's purpose is to provide POSIX environment (i.e. Unix/
Linux environment) to Windows. Since Ubuntu is 100% Linux, it already 
fully POSIX. I think you might have meant whether there is a program that 
provide Windows' Environment in Ubuntu, in that case it is "wine".
