Linearly ordered compacta and Banach spaces with a projectional resolution of the identity

Abstract

We construct a compact linearly ordered space $K$ of weight aleph one, such that the space $C(K)$ is not isomorphic to a Banach space with a projectional resolution of the identity, while on the other hand, $K$ is a continuous image of a Valdivia compact and every separable subspace of $C(K)$ is contained in a 1-complemented separable subspace. This answers two questions due to O. Kalenda and V. Montesinos.
