TITLE: On statistical bases in Banach spaces
QUESTION [9 upvotes]: Let $K$ be a subset of the positive integers $\mathbb{N}$. For each $n\in \mathbb{N}$, $K_{n}$ denotes the set $\{k\in K: k\leq n\}$ and $|K_{n}|$ denotes the number of the elements in $K_{n}$. The natural density of $K$ is defined by $$\delta(K)=\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}\frac{|K_{n}|}{n}.$$
A sequence $(x_{k})_{k}$ in a Banach space $X$ is said to be norm statistically convergent to $x\in X$ if $\delta(\{k\in \mathbb{N}:\|x_{k}-x\|\geq \epsilon\})=0$ for every $\epsilon>0$.
It is natural to define a series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}x_{k}$ to be norm statistically convergent to $x\in X$ by $(s_{n})_{n}=(\sum_{k=1}^{n}x_{k})_{n}$ to be norm statistically convergent to $x$.
We say that a sequence $(x_{k})_{k}$ in a Banach space $X$ is a statistical basis for $X$ if, for each $x\in X$, there exists a unique $(a_{k})_{k}$ such that the series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}a_{k}x_{k}$ norm statistically convergent to $x$. 
Clearly, statistical basis is a generalization of the notion of Schauder basis.
Question: For each $n$, we can define a linear functional $f_{n}$ in $X$ by $f_{n}(x)=a_{n}$. If $(x_{k})_{k}$ is a Schauder basis, we know that $f_{n}$ is continuous. However, if $(x_{k})_{k}$ is a statistical basis for $X$, is $f_{n}$ continuous?

In a recent note with J. Swaczyna (arXiv:2005.04873), we proved that assuming the existence of certain large cardinals (for example, the existence of a super-compact cardinal) that filter bases whose underlying filter is a projective subset of the Cantor set, have continuous coordinate functionals. The role of large cardinals is to make the heuristic proof I outlined in my other answer work.
The filter of statistical convergence is actually $F_{\sigma \delta}$ (hence Borel, hence projective), so in a theory stronger than ZFC, the answer to your question is affirmative. We still expect that, at least for Borel filters, the question about continuity of coordinate functionals should have a positive answer in ZFC. However, our proof method does not give a chance to invoke Schoenfield's absoluteness theorem in that context.
