Nuclear Fréchet spaces with basis do not have the three-space property (Q1093132)

A property (P) that locally convex spaces may enjoy is termed a three- space property if, whenever E contains a subspace F such that F and E/F have (P), then E too has (P). In the present paper it is proved that the property of having a basis is not a three-space property for nuclear Fréchet spaces. This follows from showing that the property of being not twisted is not a three-space property and from a previous result of the second author.
