Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the continuum. It follows that the classical result stating that "no nontrivial complemented subspace of a Grothendieck space C(K) is separable" cannot be strengthened by replacing "is separable" by "has density less than that of l ∞ ", without using an additional set-theoretic assumption. Such a…

The interplay between compact spaces and the Banach spaces of their continuous functions
An indecomposable Banach space of continuous functions which has small density
Using the method of forcing we construct a model for ZFC where CH does not hold and where there exists a connected compact topological space K of weight ω1 < 2 ω such that every operator on the…

The algebras of bounded operators on the Tsirelson and Baernstein spaces are not Grothendieck spaces
We present two new examples of reflexive Banach spaces X for which the associated Banach algebra B(X) of bounded operators on X is not a Grothendieck space, namely X = T (the Tsirelson space) and X =…
Convergence of measures in forcing extensions
We prove that if A is a σ-complete Boolean algebra in a model V of set theory and ℙ ∈ V is a proper forcing with the Laver property preserving the ground model reals non-meager, then every pointwise…

Independent families in Boolean algebras with some separation properties
We prove that any Boolean algebra with the subsequential completeness property contains an independent family of size $${\mathfrak{c}}$$, the size of the continuum. This improves a result of Argyros…
