<p>I asked myself the following question when I was student just for curiosity. I asked a bit around (my professor, some researchers that I know), but nobody was able to give me an answer. So maybe it is just that nobody thought enough about that, or maybe it is not a stupid question.</p> <p><strong>Question:</strong> Do there exist two Banach spaces, one separable and one non-separable, having isomorphic dual spaces?</p> <p>Note: isomorphic in the sense that there exists a linear homeomorphism between the two.</p>

<p>The duals of $C[0,1]$ and of <code>$C[0,1]\oplus_\infty c_0(\Bbb{R})$</code> are isometrically isomorphic.</p>

<p>The James Tree space $JT$ and $JT \oplus_2 \ell_2(2^{\aleph_0})$ have isomorphic duals.</p>

<p>To the best of my knowledge, among classical Banach spaces, $c_0,$ C[a,b], $L_1[a,b],$ $l_{\infty}/c_0$ are not dual. </p>
