4. The freewheeling twisting of Hilbert spaces
Abstract
Everybody knows what a Hilbert space is. A twisted Hilbert space instead is a Banach space X admitting a subspace Y isomorphic to a Hilbert space such that the corresponding quotient Z/Y is also isomorphic to a Hilbert space. The first nontrivial example was obtained by Enflo-Lindenstrauss-Pisier but the central object for us is the Kalton-Peck Z2 space. This paper is to explain why twisted Hilbert spaces are important in Banach space theory, what is known and what is not known about them and which problems the construction of a theory of twisted Hilbert spaces must tackle.
