A well known theorem of Lagrange states that the simple continued fraction of a real number $\alpha$ is periodic if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational. We examine non-periodic and non-simple continued fractions formed by two…
In previous work, the authors showed that the C*-algebra C*(\Lambda) of a row-finite higher-rank graph \Lambda with no sources is simple if and only if \Lambda is both cofinal and aperiodic. In this paper, we generalise this result to…
It is now well known that a simple graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$ is either AF or purely infinite. In this paper, we address the question of whether this is the case for labeled graph $C^*$-algebras recently introduced…
We introduce a divisibility-type condition for directed graphs that is necessary for $\mathcal{Z}$-stability of the corresponding graph $C^*$-algebra. We prove that this condition is sufficient if either the graph $E$ has no cycles or the…
Finiteness conditions for $C^*$-algebras like AF-embeddability, quasidiagonality, stable finiteness have been studied by many authors and shown to be equivalent for certain classes of $C^*$-algebras. For example, Schfhauser proves that…
The higher rank graphs of Kumjian and Pask are discrete Conduche fibrations over the monoid of k-tuples of natural numbers for some k in which every morphism in the base has a finite preimage under the the fibration. We examine the…
In this article, we introduce Cohn path algebras of higher-rank graphs. We prove that for a higher-rank graph $\Lambda $, there exists a higher-rank graph $T\Lambda $ such that the Cohn path algebra of $\Lambda $ is isomorphic to the…
We extend the the definition of Kumjian-Pask algebras to include algebras associated to finitely aligned higher-rank graphs. We show that these Kumjian-Pask algebras are universally defined and have a graded uniqueness theorem. We also…
In this paper we describe a new method of defining C*-algebras from oriented combinatorial data, thereby generalizing the constructions of algebras from directed graphs, higher-rank graphs, and ordered groups. We show that only the most…
In this paper, two sufficient and necessary conditions are given. The first one characterizes when the boundary path groupoid of a topological graph without singular vertices has closed interior of its isotropy group bundle, and the second…
The Kumjian-Pask algebra of a higher-rank graph generalises the Leavitt path algebra of a directed graph. We extend the definition of Kumjian-Pask algebra to row-finite higher-rank graphs $\Lambda$ with sources which satisfy a…
We address the classification problem for graph $C^*$-algebras of finite graphs (finitely many edges and vertices), containing the class of Cuntz-Krieger algebras as a prominent special case. Contrasting earlier work, we do not assume that…
Every directed graph defines a Hilbert space and a family of weighted shifts that act on the space. We identify a natural notion of periodicity for such shifts and study their C*-algebras. We prove the algebras generated by all shifts of a…
We introduce higher-rank analogues of the Leavitt path algebras, which we call the Kumjian-Pask algebras. We prove graded and Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorems for these algebras, and analyze their ideal structure.
We prove that a graph C*-algebra with exactly one proper nontrivial ideal is classified up to stable isomorphism by its associated six-term exact sequence in K-theory. We prove that a similar classification also holds for a graph C*-algebra…
Higher rank semigraph algebras are introduced by mixing concepts of ultragraph algebras and higher rank graph algebras. This yields a kind of higher rank generalisation of ultragraph algebras. We prove Cuntz--Krieger uniqueness theorems for…
We begin the study of a new class of operator algebras that arise from higher rank graphs. Every higher rank graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and creation operators which are partial isometries acting on the space. We call the…
We introduce certain $C^*$-algebras and $k$-graphs associated to $k$ finite dimensional unitary representations $\rho_1,...,\rho_k$ of a compact group $G$. We define a higher rank Doplicher-Roberts algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\rho_1,...,\rho_k}$,…
To an $r$-dimensional subshift of finite type satisfying certain special properties we associate a $C^*$-algebra $\cA$. This algebra is a higher rank version of a Cuntz-Krieger algebra. In particular, it is simple, purely infinite and…
In this paper, prime as well as primitive Kumjian-Pask algebras $\mathrm{KP}_R(\Lambda)$ of a row-finite $k$-graph $\Lambda$ over a unital commutative ring $R$ are completely characterized in graph-theoretic and algebraic terms. By applying…
