Unital operator spaces and discrete groups

Abstract: The first result regards reflexive unital masa bimodules acting on a Hilbert space. We show that any such space can be written as an intersection of terms $\mathbb{A}+\mathbb{B}$, $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{B}$ being CSL algebras. Next, we introduce the trivial intersection property for concrete operator spaces and we show that a unital space with this property has no nontrivial boundary ideals. We provide various examples of spaces with this property, such as strongly reflexive masa bimodules and completely distributive CSL algebras. We show that unital operator spaces acting on $\ell^2(\Gamma)$ for any set $\Gamma$, that contain the masa $\ell^\infty(\Gamma)$, possess the trivial intersection property, and we use this to prove that a unital surjective complete isometry between such spaces is actually a unitary equivalence. Then, we apply these results to $w^*$-closed $\ell^\infty(G)$-bimodules acting on $\ell^2(G)$ for a group $G$ and we relate them to algebraic properties of $G$.
