Abstract

We show that the geometric structure of Banach spaces which are solutions to the Schroeder-Bernstein Problem is very complex. More precisely, we prove that there exists a non-separable solution E to this problem such that

  1. (a)

    E is isomorphic to each one of its finite codimensional subspaces.

  2. (b)

    E has no complemented Hereditarily Indecomposable subspace.

  3. (c)

    E has no complemented subspace isomorphic to its square.

  4. (d)

    E has no non-trivial divisor.
