This is an announcement for the paper "The number of weakly compact sets which generate a Banach space" by Antonio Aviles.
Abstract: We consider the cardinal invariant CG(X) of the minimal number of weakly compact subsets which generate a Banach space X. We study the behavior of this index when passing to subspaces, its relation with the Lindelof number in the weak topology and other related questions.
