We analyze in the context of Leavitt path algebras some graph operations introduced in the context of symbolic dynamics by Williams, Parry and Sullivan, and Franks. We show that these operations induce Morita equivalence of the…
Suppose that $R$ is an associative unital ring and that $E=(E^0,E^1,r,s)$ is a directed graph. Utilizing results from graded ring theory we show, that the associated Leavitt path algebra $L_R(E)$ is simple if and only if $R$ is simple,…
Let $E$ be a finite directed graph, and let $I$ be the poset obtained as the antisymmetrization of its set of vertices with respect to a pre-order $\le$ that satisfies $v\le w$ whenever there exists a directed path from $w$ to $v$. Assuming…
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…
In this paper, we develop structure theory for graded regular graded self-injective rings and apply it in the context of Leavitt path algebras. We show that for a finite graph, graded regular graded self-injective Leavitt path algebras are…
Let $n$ be a positive integer. For each $0\leq j \leq n-1$ we let $C_n^{j}$ denote Cayley graph for the cyclic group ${\mathbb Z}_n $ with respect to the subset $\{1, j\}$. For any such pair $(n,j)$ we compute the size of the Grothendieck…
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…
We describe the centroid of some Leavitt path algebras. More precisely, we show that for Leavitt path algebras over a field $K$ that are simple its centroid is isomorphic to $K$, and for prime Leavitt path algebras its centroid is…
The concept of generalized path algebras was introduced in (Coelho, Liu, 2000). Roughly speaking, these algebras are constructed in a similar way to that of the path algebras over a quiver, the difference being that we assign an algebra to…
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…
We compute the monoid of isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective modules of a Leavitt path algebra over an arbitrary directed graph. Our result generalizes the result of Ara, Moreno, and Pardo in which they computed this monoid…
We provide a complete answer to the question "When is a quotient of a Leavitt path algebra isomorphic to a Leavitt path algebra?" in terms of the interaction of the kernel of the quotient homomorphism with the cycles of the digraph. A key…
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…
We study relative Cohn path algebras, also known as Leavitt-Cohn path algebras, and we realize them as partial skew group rings (to do this we prove uniqueness theorems for relative Cohn path algebras). Furthermore, given any graph $E$ we…
This introduction to graphs and graph algebras provides the optimal bound for the number of all paths of length $k$ in a graph with $N\geq k$ edges and no loops. Our proof relies on a construction of a number of terminating algorithms that…
We introduce ring theoretic constructions that are similar to the construction of wreath product of groups. In particular, for a given graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$ and an associate algebra $A,$ we construct an algebra $B=A\, wr\, L(\Gamma)$ with…
Let $E$ be an arbitrary (countable) graph and let $R$ be a unital commutative ring. We analyze the ideal structure of the Leavitt path algebra $\lr$ introduced by Mark Tomforde. We first modify the definition of basic ideals and we then…
We study two classes of inverse semigroups built from directed graphs, namely graph inverse semigroups and a new class of semigroups that we refer to as Leavitt inverse semigroups. These semigroups are closely related to graph…
In this article, we give a new class of automorphisms of Leavitt path algebras of arbitrary graphs. Consequently, we obtain Anick type automorphisms of these Leavitt path algebras and new irreducible representations of Leavitt algebras of…
We relate two conjectures which have been raised for classification of Leavitt path algebras. For purely infinite simple unital Leavitt path algebras, it is conjectured that K_0 classifies them completely. For arbitrary Leavitt path…
