The concordance genus of a knot K is the minimum three-genus of all knots
smoothly concordant to K. We give a lower bound for the concordance genus of K
coming from the knot Floer complex of K. As an application, we prove that there
are topologically slice knots with 4-ball genus equal to one and arbitrarily
large concordance genus.
