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…
This survey of the recent developments in the investigations of a Leavitt path algebra L of an arbitrary graph E over a field K consists of two parts. In the first part describes how very often a single graph property of E implies multiple…
Let $K$ be a field, let $E$ be a finite directed graph, and let $L_K(E)$ be the Leavitt path algebra of $E$ over $K$. We show that for a prime ideal $P$ in $L_K(E)$, the following are equivalent: \begin{enumerate} \item $P$ is primitive;…
Let $E$ be any directed graph, and $K$ any field. We classify those graphs $E$ for which the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ is primitive. As a consequence, we obtain classes of examples of von Neumann regular prime rings which are not…
Let $L_K(E)$ be the Leavitt path algebra of a directed graph $E$ over a field $K$. In this paper, we determine $E$ and $K$ for the Lie algebra $\mathbf{K}_{L_K(E)}$ and the Jordan algebra $\mathbf{S}_{L_K(E)}$ arising from $L_K(E)$ with…
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…
If $E$ is a directed graph and $K$ is a field, the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of $E$ over $K$ is naturally graded by the group of integers $\mathbb Z.$ We formulate properties of the graph $E$ which are equivalent with $L_K(E)$ being a…
Refining an idea of Rosenmann and Rosset we show that the now widely studied classical Leavitt algebra $L_K(1,n)$ over a field $K$ is a ring of right quotients of the unital free associative algebra of rank $n$ with respect to the perfect…
In this paper we show that Leavitt path algebras of weighted graphs and Leavitt path algebras of separated graphs are intimately related. We prove that any Leavitt path algebra $L(E,\omega)$ of a row-finite vertex weighted graph…
While every matrix algebra over a field $K$ can be realized as a Leavitt path algebra, this is not the case for every graded matrix algebra over a graded field. We provide a complete description of graded matrix algebras over a field,…
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…
We associate in a natural way to any partially ordered set $(P,\leq)$ a directed graph $E_P$ (where the vertices of $E_P$ correspond to the elements of $P$, and the edges of $E_P$ correspond to related pairs of elements of $P$), and then…
Let $E$ be a directed graph, $\mathbb K$ be a field, and $\mathbb F$ be the free group on the edges of $E$. In this work, we use the isomorphism between Leavitt path algebras and partial skew group rings to endow $L_{\mathbb K}(E)$ with an…
Any finite dimensional semisimple algebra A over a field K is isomorphic to a direct sum of finite dimensional full matrix rings over suitable division rings. In this paper we will consider the special case where all division rings are…
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…
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,…
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…
This article is the first of two where we investigate to what extent homotopy invariant, excisive and matrix stable homology theories help one distinguish between the Leavitt path algebras $L(E)$ and $L(F)$ of graphs $E$ and $F$ over a…
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…
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…
