Streszczenie
We show that if $X$ is an infinite-dimensional Banach space in which every finite-dimensional subspace is $\lambda$-complemented with $\lambda\le 2$ then $X$ is $(1+C\sqrt{\lambda-1})$-isomorphic to a Hilbert space, where $C$ is an absolute constant; this estimate (up to the constant $C$) is best possible. This answers a question of Kadets and Mityagin from 1973. We also investigate the finite-dimensional versions of the theorem.
