We study the center of several types of path algebras. We start with the path algebra $KE$ and prove that if the number of vertices is infinite then the center is zero. Otherwise, it coincides with the field $K$ except when the graph $E$ is…
We classify row-finite Leavitt path algebras associated to graphs with no more than two vertices. For the discussion we use the following invariants: decomposability, the $K_0$ group, $\det(N'_E)$ (included in the Franks invariants), the…
In this paper we characterize the minimal left ideals of a Leavitt path algebra as those ones which are isomorphic to principal left ideals generated by line point vertices, that is, by vertices whose trees do not contain neither…
Viewing Leavitt path algebras of finite digraphs as rings of quotients defined by the ideal topology of the ideal generated by all arrows and sinks allows us to induce their representations from those of the quiver algebras and therefore…
There is an extensive recent literature on the graded, non-graded, prime, primitive, maximal ideals of Leavitt path algebras. In this introductory level survey, we will be giving an overview of different types of ideals and the…
Given an arbitrary graph, we describe the center of its Leavitt path algebra over a commutative unital ring. Our proof uses the Steinberg algebra model of the Leavitt path algebra. A key ingredient is a characterization of compact open…
Let $E$ be an arbitrary directed graph and let $L$ be the Leavitt path algebra of the graph $E$ over a field $K$. It is shown that every ideal of $L$ is an intersection of primitive/prime ideals in $L$ if and only if the graph $E$ satisfies…
The main aim of the paper is to give a socle theory for Leavitt path algebras of arbitrary graphs. We use both the desingularization process and combinatorial methods to study Morita invariant properties concerning the socle and to…
We explicitly describe two-sided ideals in Leavitt path algebras associated with a row-finite graph. Our main result is that any two-sided ideal $I$ of a Leavitt path algebra associated with a row-finite graph is generated by elements of…
We prove Leavitt path algebra versions of the two uniqueness theorems of graph C*-algebras. We use these uniqueness theorems to analyze the ideal structure of Leavitt path algebras and give necessary and sufficient conditions for their…
Using the E-algebraic systems, various graded irreducible representations of a Leavitt path algebra L of a graph E over a field K are constructed. The concept of a Laurent vertex is introduced and it is shown that the minimal graded left…
In [8, 9] M. G. Corrales Garcia, D. M. Barquero, C. Martin Gonzalez, M. Siles Molina, J. F Solanilla Hernandez described the center of a Leavitt path algebra and characterized it in terms of the underlying graph. We offer a different…
We achieve an extremely useful description (up to isomorphism) of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of a finite graph $E$ with coefficients in a field $K$ as a direct sum of matrix rings over $K$, direct sum with a corner of the Leavitt…
Leavitt path algebras are shown to be algebras of right quotients of their corresponding path algebras. Using this fact we obtain maximal algebras of right quotients from those (Leavitt) path algebras whose associated graph satisfies that…
Leavitt path algebras are free algebras subject to relations induced by directed graphs. This paper investigates the ideals of Leavitt path algebras, with an emphasis on the relationship between graph-theoretic properties of a directed…
We study almost complete intersections ideals whose Rees algebras are extremal in the sense that some of their fundamental metrics---depth or relation type---have maximal or minimal values in the class. The focus is on those ideals that…
We continue a very fruitful line of inquiry into the multiplicative ideal theory of an arbitrary Leavitt path algebra L. Specifically, we show that factorizations of an ideal in L into irredundant products or intersections of finitely many…
In this paper, we classify all Leavitt path algebras which have the property that every Lie ideal is an ideal. As an application, we show that Leavitt path algebras with this property provide a class of locally finite, infinite-dimensional…
In this paper we describe three different variations of prime ideals: strongly irreducible ideals, strongly prime ideals and insulated prime ideals in the context of Leavitt path algebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions under…
An extremal element $x$ in a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is an element for which the space $[x, [x, \mathfrak{g}]]$ is contained in the linear span of $x$. Long root elements in classical Lie algebras are examples of extremal elements. Lie…
