Derivations of Leavitt path algebra

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the KK-module HH1(LK(Γ))HH^1(L_K(\Gamma)) of outer derivations of the Leavitt path algebra LK(Γ)L_K(\Gamma) of a row-finite graph Γ\Gamma with coefficients in an associative commutative ring KK with unit. We give an explicit formula for every outer derivation of LK(Γ)L_K(\Gamma). We also describe the Lie algebra structure of outer derivations of the Toeplitz algebra and we prove that every derivation of the Leavitt path algebra can be extended to a derivation of the corresponding CC^*-algebra.
