Let $G$ be a group and $\ell$ a commutative unital $\ast$-ring with an element $\lambda \in \ell$ such that $\lambda + \lambda^\ast = 1$. We introduce variants of hermitian bivariant $K$-theory for $\ast$-algebras equipped with a $G$-action…
In this paper, we study ideal- and congruence-simpleness for the Leavitt path algebras of directed graphs with coefficients in a commutative semiring S, as well as establish some fundamental properties of those algebras. We provide a…
The theory of Leavitt path algebras is intrinsically related, via graphs, to the theory of symbolic dynamics and $C^*$-algebras where the major classification programs have been a domain of intense research in the last 50 years. In this…
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 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…
We characterize Leavitt path algebras which are Rickart, Baer, and Baer $*$-rings in terms of the properties of the underlying graph. In order to treat non-unital Leavitt path algebras as well, we generalize these annihilator-related…
We generalise the theory of Cuntz-Krieger families and graph algebras to the class of finitely aligned $k$-graphs. This class contains in particular all row-finite $k$-graphs. The Cuntz-Krieger relations for non-row-finite $k$-graphs look…
Associating graph algebras to directed graphs leads to both covariant and contravariant functors from suitable categories of graphs to the category k-Alg of algebras and algebra homomorphisms. As both functors are often used at the same…
We raise the following general question regarding a ring graded by a group: "If $P$ is a ring-theoretic property, how does one define the graded version $P_{\operatorname{gr}}$ of the property $P$ in a meaningful way?". Some properties of…
We give the necessary and sufficient condition for a separated Cohn-Leavitt path algebra of a finite digraph to have IBN. As a consequence, separated Cohn path algebras have IBN. We determine the non-stable K-theory of a corner ring in…
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…
For a weighted graph $E$, we construct representation graphs $F$, and consequently, $L_K(E)$-modules $V_F$, where $L_K(E)$ is the Leavitt path algebra associated to $E$, with coefficients in a field $K$. We characterise representation…
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…
If $K$ is a field with involution and $E$ an arbitrary graph, the involution from $K$ naturally induces an involution of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E).$ We show that the involution on $L_K(E)$ is proper if the involution on $K$ is…
In [14] we introduced a new class of algebras, which we named \textit{quantum generalized Heisenberg algebras} and which depend on a parameter $q$ and two polynomials $f,g$. We have shown that this class includes all generalized Heisenberg…
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…
A graph of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension three is a connected finite essential graph such that its Leavitt path algebra has Gelfand-Kirillov dimension three. We provide number-theoretic criteria for graphs of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension three…
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…
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,…
In this work we realize Leavitt path algebras as partial skew groupoid rings. This yields a free path groupoid grading on Leavitt path algebras. Using this grading we characterize free path groupoid graded isomorphisms of Leavitt path…
