Continuous Linear Surjections from $C_p(X)$ onto Symmetric Sequence Ideals in $c_0$
Rosenthal's classical theorem says that, for every infinite compact space $X$, the Banach space $C(X)$ admits a quotient isomorphic to either $c_0$ or $\ell_2$. The corresponding question for $C_p(X)$, the space $C(X)$ endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence, is much subtler and still open; the only compact...
