Jan 25, 2014 at 8:06 | comment | added | Narutaka OZAWA | @Mateusz Wasilewski: $A$ is cb isomorphic to min iff it is subhomogeneous. A $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $A$ is said to be subhomogeneous if it has only finite-dimensional irreducible representations (which is also equivalent to that it is isomorphic to a subalgebra of $M_n(C(X))$). Indeed, if $A$ is not subhomogeneous, then $A^{**}$ has a direct summand isomorphic to $B(H)$ with infinite-dimensional $H$, which is not cb isomorphic to a min space. | |

Jan 24, 2014 at 16:31 | comment | added | Mateusz Wasilewski | Thank you very much; this settles the completely isometric case. The completely bounded case, as it stands, is obviously false since $M_2 \oplus L_{\infty}$ (just to have it infinite dimensional) provides a (trivial) counterexample. | |
