    Let \({\mathcal B}\) be the direct sum of Banach spaces \({\mathcal B}_i\) \((i= 1,2,3)\), which is also a Banach space. A bounded linear operator \(A:{\mathcal B}\to{\mathcal B}^*\), where \({\mathcal B}^*\) is the Banach space of bounded antilinear functionals on \({\mathcal B}\), has a block representation \(A= (A_{jk})^3_{j,k}\), where \(A_{jk}:{\mathcal B}_k\to{\mathcal B}^*_j\) \((j,k= 1,2,3)\). The completion problem solved by the authors is: for given \(A_{j,k}\) \((j,k= 1,2)\) and \(A_{lm}\) \((l,m= 2,3)\) determine the set of all operators \(A_{13}\) and \(A_{31}\) such that \(A\) is a nonnegative operator (i.e. the functional \(Ax\geq 0\) for all \(x\in{\mathcal B}\)). This is a generalization of a finite-dimensional problem. A particular truncated trigonometric moment problem is also solved by means of the above result.
