Abstract of a paper by S. K. Mercourakis and G. Vassiliadis
This is an announcement for the paper "Equilateral sets in infinite dimensional Banach spaces" by S. K. Mercourakis and G. Vassiliadis. Abstract: We show that every Banach space $X$ containing an isomorphic copy of $c_0$ has an infinite equilateral set and also that if $X$ has a bounded biorthogonal system of size $\alpha$ then it can be renormed so as to admit an equilateral set of equal size. If $K$ is any compact non metrizable space, then under a certain combinatorial condition on $K$ the Banach space $C(K)$ has an uncountable equilateral set.
