Aug 8, 2016 at 16:07 comment added Bill Johnson The ``proof" in the linked paper is not a proof, Ben.
Aug 7, 2016 at 5:20 comment added August Cleaner @BenWallis I do not understand: why does he author of the linked paper claim that $|\hat x^*_i(y)|\le p_i(y)$?
Aug 7, 2016 at 1:58 comment added Ben W @BillJohnson I am not sure I understand. In Theorem 3.3 of the linked paper, we get a Markushevich basis $(x_n,x_n^*)_{n=1}^\infty$ satisfying $\|x_n\|\cdot\|x_n^*\|=1$. If we write $y_n=\frac{x_n}{\|x_n\|}$ and $y_n^*=\|x_n\|x_n^*$ then $(y_n,y_n^*)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a Markushevich basis satisfying $\|y_n\|=\|y_n^*\|=1$. Doesn't this solve the problem? If not, where have I gone wrong? Or are you instead saying that the proof of Theorem 3.3 is invalid?

Jul 31, 2016 at 19:49 comment added Tomasz Kania Yes, it is still open. Btw. Theorem 2.1 is an easy exercise (certainly known) and the claim that Grothendieck [GR] proved that if a Banach space had the approximation property, then it would also have a S-basis is false.
Jul 31, 2016 at 18:33 comment added Bill Johnson As far as I know the problem is still open. It is not solved in the linked paper.
