But you're on a piano. Fortunately, all of the above have direct equivalents on a piano keyboard:
Inversions - instead of putting your thumb on the root note and playing the 3rd and 5th, put your thumb on the 5th below the root you're playing, then the root and 3rd above that. You have several octaves' worth of notes to pick from.
Arpeggiation - I don't really have to explain, do I?
Rolls - the closest analogy to the guitar roll I described is a classic boogie-woogie piano part, where the left hand does the root-to-fifth-below bass part, and the right hand plays choppy chords in various inversions on the off-beats. There are lots of "learn to play boogie-woogie piano" books on the market.
Connecting notes - as easy (or easier) on a keyboard as on a guitar.
In addition, some songs are driven by their chord progression, so you can get away with block chords without it sounding boring.
Some songs have few, or no, chord changes, and interest is provided by the riff. In cases like these, you're going to need to create an approximation of the riff (or develop your own riff that fits).
As with all music, listen to the sort of stuff you'd like to sound like, and copy what they do.
