Banach spaces with a shrinking hyperorthogonal basis (Q753080)

Let X be a complex Banach space. A Schauder basis \(\{e_ i\}\) of X is called hyperorthogonal if the norm of an element \(\sum a_ ie_ i\) depends only on the absolute value of the coefficients \(a_ i\). The author studies the properties of the conjugate space \(X^*\) under the additional requirement that the basis is shrinking; that is, that the functionals \(e^*_ i\) defined by \(e^*_ i(e_ j)=\delta_{ij}\) form a basis of the space X (even if X is not reflexive). Some interesting results are proved.
