Abstract

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 $\omega _1<2^\omega $ such that every operator on the Banach space of continuous functions on $K$ is multiplication by a continuous function plus a weakly compact operator. In particular, the Banach space of continuous functions on $K$ is indecomposable.
