Extract

By an orthonormal system in a general complex Banach space, we mean a collection {eα: α ∈ } it vectors such that, for each α, there is an hermitian (in the numerical range sense, see (4)) projection Pα whose range is lin (eα) and such that PαPβ = 0, if α ≠ β. This paper is devoted to the study of orthonormal systems in general Banach spaces, and their applications to problems of characterizing isometries and hermitian operators.
