Streszczenie
There is constructed a compactly generated, separable, locally compact group G and a continuous irreducible unitary representation π of G such that the image π(C*(G)) of the group C*-algebra contains the algebra of compact operators, while the image $π(L^1(G))$ of the $L^1$-group algebra does not containany nonzero compact operator. The group G is a semidirect product of a metabelian discrete group and a "generalized Heisenberg group".
