Each \\(\\pi \\in \\widehat G\\), induces an \\(*\\)-representation of \\(L^1(G)\\) which we may still denote by \\(\\pi\\) [\\textit{J. Dixmier}, \\(C^\\ast\\)-algebras. Translated by Francis Jellett. Amsterdam: North-Holland Publishing Company (1977; Zbl 0372.46058)]. One can then define a new norm on \\(L^1(G)\\) by putting \\(\\|f\\|=\\sup_{\\pi \\in \\widehat G}\\|\\pi (f)\\|\\), where \\(f\\in L^1(G)\\). The completion of \\(L^1(G)\\) under this norm is called the \\(C^\\ast\\)-algebra of \\(G\\) and is denoted by \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\).  The importance of \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) is partly due to the fact that it provides a link between group theory, harmonic analysis, and operator algebras. Since \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) is obtained as a result of completion of \\(L^1(G)\\), a concrete description of \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) will help to better understand these algebras.  In recent years, the second named author has led the efforts in providing characterizations of \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) for various Lie groups. For example, the structure of \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) is already known for the Heisenberg group and the thread-like Lie groups [the second author and \\textit{L. Turowska}, Math. Z. 268, No. 3--4, 897--930 (2011; Zbl 1230.22004)], the \\(ax+b\\)-like groups [\\textit{Y.-F. Lin} and the second author, J. Funct. Anal. 259, No. 1, 104--130 (2010; Zbl 1208.22005)], \\(5\\)-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups [the second author and \\textit{H. Regeiba}, J. Lie Theory 25, No. 3, 613--655 (2015; Zbl 1331.22009)], and \\(6\\)-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups [\\textit{H. Regeiba}, Les \\(C^\\ast\\)-alg\u00e8bres des groupes de Lie nilpotents de dimension [inf\u00e9rieure ou \u00e9gale \u00e0] 6. Nancy: Universit\u00e9 de Lorraine (PhD thesis) (2014)].  In the paper under review, the authors give a complete characterization of \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) when \\(G\\) is a connected real two-step nilpotent Lie group. To this end, they introduce two finite families of subsets \\((S_i)_{i\\in \\{0,\\ldots , r\\}}\\) and \\((\\Gamma_i)_{i\\in \\{0,\\ldots , r\\}}\\) of \\(\\widehat G\\), and a family of Hilbert spaces \\((\\mathcal H _i)_{i\\in \\{0,\\ldots , r\\}}\\), and prove the following result (Theorem 4):  Theorem. The \\(C^{\\ast}\\)-algebra \\(C^{\\ast}(G)\\) of a connected real two-step nilpotent Lie group \\(G\\) is isomorphic (under the Fourier transform) to the set of all operator fields \\(\\varphi\\) defined over \\(\\widehat G\\) such that {\\parindent=6mm \\begin{itemize}\\item[(1)] \\(\\varphi (\\gamma )\\in \\mathcal K(\\mathcal H_i)\\) (compact operators on \\(\\mathcal H_i\\)) for every \\(i\\in \\{1,\\ldots , r\\}\\) and every \\(\\gamma \\in \\Gamma_i\\). \\item[(2)] \\(\\varphi \\in \\ell^\\infty (\\widehat G)\\). \\item[(3)] The mappings \\(\\gamma \\mapsto \\varphi (\\gamma )\\) are norm continuous on the different sets \\(\\Gamma_i\\). \\item[(4)] For any sequence \\((\\gamma_k)_{k\\in \\mathbb{N}}\\subset \\widehat G\\) going to infinity, \\(\\lim_{k\\to \\infty}\\|\\varphi (\\gamma_k)\\|_{\\text{op}}=0\\). \\item[(5)] For \\(i\\in \\{1,\\ldots , r\\}\\) and any properly converging sequence \\(\\overline \\gamma =(\\gamma_k )_k\\subset \\Gamma_i\\) whose limit set \\(L(\\overline \\gamma)\\) is contained in \\(S_{i-1}\\) (taking a subsequence if necessary) and for the mappings \\(\\tilde\\nu_k=\\tilde\\nu_{\\overline \\gamma , k}: CB(S_{i-1})\\to \\mathcal B(\\mathcal H_i)\\), one has  \\[ \\lim_{k\\to \\infty}\\|\\varphi (\\gamma_k)-\\tilde\\nu_k({\\varphi}|_{{S_{i-1}}}) \\|_{\\text{op}}=0. \\]    \\end{itemize}} The main work of this paper consists of proving (5), and in particular in the construction of the mappings \\((\\tilde\\nu)_k\\). Section 1 contains a very informative introduction to the subject. Section 2 covers the preliminary material. Section 3 deals with the proofs of properties (1)--(4). The long and technical proof of (5) is carried out in Section 4. Some examples are briefly discussed in the final section of the paper.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$1EC67645-DC53-4AFD-B1C8-21C7AF97D8C8","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"a53d213c0597533c818e1e9049abeb0c05450e39","datavalue":{"value":"22D25","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$EF2514C0-D0E9-4315-BD98-747C115F6D93","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"33786a1993777ef77f49a5bc3afb174e1b299805","datavalue":{"value":"46L35","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$F327F2AE-9CAD-46F2-A69D-77A66241AC67","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"daf9322b99841248717c64b3a7fe9b8a012600ee","datavalue":{"value":"22E25","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$D25FC4E6-740F-4ACC-96F5-D7A17F5282B8","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"cdb2f2cf4f267f4894456bb4a11f7db3228a2972","datavalue":{"value":"6561079","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$60F8C3C8-3F93-4A40-B322-84FFDBA8DAEC","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"3032e8799fcae9937814598d1b50466da8843e41","datavalue":{"value":"\\(C^\\ast\\)-algebra","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q262634$C9A7E9CC-14F4-46F5-AE14-473F05B0AA6D","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"4e0ee0119e880f1d24800d3cee23ba272d8a16d6","datavalue":{"value":"two-step
