Abstract

We show that there exists a Banach space E such that:

- the Banach algebra B(E) of bounded, linear operators on E has a singular extension which splits algebraically, but it does not split strongly;

- the homological bidimension of B(E) is at least two.

The first of these conclusions solves a natural problem left open by Bade, Dales, and Lykova (Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 1999), while the second answers a question of Helemskii. The Banach space E that we use was originally introduced by Read
(J. London Math. Soc. 1989).
