For a field K and directed graph E, we analyze those elements of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) which lie in the commutator subspace [L_K(E), L_K(E)]. This analysis allows us to give easily computable necessary and sufficient conditions to…
Let L be the Leavitt path algebra of an arbitrary directed graph E over a field K. This survey article describes how this highly non-commutative ring L shares a number of the characterizing properties of a Dedekind domain or a Pr\"ufer…
For each $1\le p<\infty$ and each countable directed graph $E$ we consider the Leavitt path $\mathbb{C}$-algebra $L(E)$ and the $L^p$-operator graph algebra $\mathcal{O}^p(E)$. We show that the (purely infinite) simplicity of…
We characterise when the Leavitt path algebras over $\mathbb{Z}$ of two arbitrary countable directed graphs are $*$-isomorphic by showing that two Leavitt path algebras over $\mathbb{Z}$ are $*$-isomorphic if and only if the corresponding…
For a field $F$ and a row-finite directed graph $\Gamma$ let $L(\Gamma)$ be the Leavitt path algebra. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the Lie algebra $[L(\Gamma),L(\Gamma)]$ to be simple.
Let $E$ be an arbitrary graph and $K$ be any field. We construct various classes of non-isomorphic simple modules over the Leavitt path algebra $L_{K}(E)$ induced by vertices which are infinite emiters, closed paths which are exclusive…
Let $E$ be a graph and $K$ a field. In this paper we prove that the multiplicative group of a unital noncommutative Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ contains non-cyclic free subgroups provided $K$ is of characteristic $0$. Further, we provide…
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…
When the theory of Leavitt path algebras was already quite advanced, it was discovered that some of the more difficult questions were susceptible to a new approach using topological groupoids. The main result that makes this possible is…
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…
Leavitt path algebras of bi-separated graphs have been recently introduced by R. Mohan and B. Suhas. These algebras provide a common framework for studying various generalisations of Leavitt path algebras. In this paper we obtain modules…
Let $K$ be a field and $E$ be a graph. Let $L_K(E)$ be the Leavitt path algebra of $E$ over $K$ with the standard involution $^\star$. We investigate the set of skew-symmetric elements, $\mathbf{K}_{L_K(E)}=\{x\in L_K(E) : x^{\star}=-x\}$,…
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…
Leavitt inverse semigroups of directed finite graphs are related to Leavitt graph algebras of (directed) graphs. Leavitt path algebras of graphs have the natural $\mathbb Z$-grading via the length of paths in graphs. We consider the…
For any positive integer $n$ we describe the Leavitt path algebra of the Cayley graph $C_n$ corresponding to the cyclic group $\Z/n\Z$. Using a Kirchberg-Phillips-type realization result, we show that there are exactly four isomorphism…
We show that if $E$ is an arbitrary acyclic graph then the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ is locally $K$-matricial; that is, $L_K(E)$ is the direct union of subalgebras, each isomorphic to a finite direct sum of finite matrix rings over the…
The construction of the Leavitt path algebra associated to a directed graph $E$ is extended to incorporate a family $C$ consisting of partitions of the sets of edges emanating from the vertices of $E$. The new algebras, $L_K(E,C)$, are…
Given an arbitrary graph $E$ we investigate the relationship between $E$ and the groupoid $G_E$. We show that there is a lattice isomorphism between the lattice of pairs $(H, S)$, where $H$ is a hereditary and saturated set of vertices and…
Two unanswered questions in the heart of the theory of Leavitt path algebras are whether Grothendieck group $K_0$ is a complete invariant for the class of unital purely infinite simple algebras and, a weaker question, whether $L_2$ (the…
In this paper we completely describe graphically Leavitt path algebras with bounded index of nilpotence and show that each graded simple module $S$ over a Leavitt path algebra with bounded index of nilpotence is graded $\Sigma$-injective,…
