We study some homological invariants of a given generalized bound path algebra in terms of those of the algebras used in its construction. We discuss the particular case where the algebra is a generalized path algebra and give conditions…

We prove that the C*-algebra of a directed graph $E$ is liminal iff the graph satisfies the finiteness condition: if $p$ is an infinite path or a path ending with a sink or an infinite emitter, and if $v$ is any vertex, then there are only…

We show that $E$ is a finite graph with no sinks if and only if the Leavitt path algebra $L_R(E)$ is isomorphic to an algebraic Cuntz-Krieger algebra if and only if the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$ is unital and…

The purpose of this paper is to provide a common framework for studying various generalizations of Leavitt algebras and Leavitt path algebras. This paper consists of two parts. In part I we define Cohn-Leavitt path algebras of a new class…

We prove that the algebra of invariants of a complete path algebra under the action of a homogeneous group of continuous algebra automorphisms is a complete path algebra and preserves finite or tame representation type.

In this paper we completely describe graphically Leavitt path algebras with bounded index of nilpotence. We show that the Leavitt path algebra $L_{K}(E)$ has index of nilpotence at most $n$ if and only if no cycle in the graph $E$ has an…

We show that the graph construction used to prove that a gauge-invariant ideal of a graph C*-algebra is isomorphic to a graph C*-algebra, and also used to prove that a graded ideal of a Leavitt path algebra is isomorphic to a Leavitt path…

In this paper we address the classification problem for purely infinite simple Leavitt path algebras of finite graphs over a field $\ell$. Each graph $E$ has associated a Leavitt path $\ell$-algebra $L(E)$. There is an open question which…

Given a directed graph E we describe a method for constructing a Leavitt path algebra $L_R(E)$ whose coefficients are in a commutative unital ring R. We prove versions of the Graded Uniqueness Theorem and Cuntz-Krieger Uniqueness Theorem…

For each commutative, graded algebra with finite dimension in each degree, we construct a graded cohomology theory for graphs whose graded Euler characteristic is the chromatic polynomial of the graph. This extends our previous work which…

Leavitt path algebras L of an arbitrary graph E over a field K satisfying a polynomial identity are completely characterized both in graph-theoretic and algebraic terms. When E is a finite graph, L satisfying a polynomial identity is shown…

In this paper we generalize the notion of a $k$-graph into (countable) infinite rank. We then define our $C^*$-algebra in a similar way as in $k$-graph $C^*$-algebras. With this construction we are able to find analogues to the Gauge…

We present a result of P. Ara which establishes that the Unbounded Generating Number property is a Morita invariant for unital rings. Using this, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a graph $E$ so that the Leavitt path algebra…

Let $K$ be a field. We characterise the row-finite weighted graphs $(E,w)$ such that the weighted Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E,w)$ is isomorphic to an unweighted Leavitt path algebra. Moreover, we prove that if $L_K(E,w)$ is locally finite,…

We introduce a new class of C^*-algebras, which is a generalization of both graph algebras and homeomorphism C^*-algebras. This class is very large and also very tractable. We prove the so-called gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem and the…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a row-finite graph E so that the Leavitt path algebra L(E) is purely infinite simple. This result provides the algebraic analog to the corresponding result for the Cuntz-Krieger C$^*$-algebra…

In this paper, we give sharp bounds for the homological dimensions of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of a finite graph $E$ with coefficients in a commutative ring $K$, as well as establish a formula for calculating the homological…

Given an $N$-dimensional compact manifold $M$ and a field $\bk$, F. Cohen and L. Taylor have constructed a spectral sequence, $\cE(M,n,\bk)$, converging to the cohomology of the space of ordered configurations of $n$ points in $M$. The…

For any unital commutative ring $R$ and for any graph $E$, we identify the commutative core of the Leavitt path algebra of $E$ with coefficients in $R$, which is a maximal commutative subalgebra of the Leavitt path algebra. Furthermore, we…

In the standard category of directed graphs, graph morphisms map edges to edges. By allowing graph morphisms to map edges to finite paths (path homomorphisms of graphs), we obtain an ambient category in which we determine subcategories…
