One of the fundamental questions of Banach space theory is whether every Banach space has a basis. A space with a basis gives us a sense of familiarity and concreteness, and perhaps a chance to attempt the classification of all Banach spaces and other problems.The main goals of this book are to: -introduce the reader to some of the basic concepts, results and applications of biorthogonal systems in infinite dimensional geometry of Banach spaces, and in topology and nonlinear analysis in Banach spaces, -aim the text at graduate students and researchers who have a foundation in Banach space theory, - expose the reader to some current avenues of research in biorthogonal systems in Banach spaces, -provide notes and exercises related to the topic, suggest open problems and possible new directions of research.Numerous exercises are included, and the only prerequisites are a basic background in functional analysis.

This text introduces readers to the basic principles of functional analysis and to areas of Banach space theory. In the first part, the book develops the classical theory, including weak topologies, locally convex spaces, Schauder bases, and compact operator theory. The second part covers topics in convexity and smoothness, finite representability, and variational. The text can be used in graduate courses or for independent study. It includes exercises of different levels and is aimed at young researchers in functional analysis. It can also serve as a reference book.
