In this paper, we give a matrix-theoretic criterion for the Leavitt path algebra of a finite graph has Invariant Basis Number. Consequently, we show that the Cohn path algebra of a finite graph has Invariant Basis Number, as well as provide…
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…
In this note we extend the construction of a $C^*$-algebra associated to a self-similar graph to the case of arbitrary countable graphs. We reduce the problem to the row-finite case with no sources, by using a desingularization process.…
We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We identify the boundary-path space $\partial\Lambda$ as the spectrum of a commutative $C^*$-subalgebra $D_\Lambda$ of…
The Algebraic Kirchberg-Phillips Question for Leavitt path algebras asks whether unital $K$-theory is a complete isomorphism invariant for unital, simple, purely infinite Leavitt path algebras over finite graphs. Most work on this problem…
Motivated by the study of traces on graph $C^*$-algebras, we consider traces (additive, central maps) on Leavitt path algebras, the algebraic counterparts of graph $C^*$-algebras. In particular, we consider traces which vanish on nonzero…
It is shown that for a given infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a compact, infinite set of real numbers $\Lambda$ there is a real symmetric matrix $A$ whose graph is $G$ and its spectrum is $\Lambda$. Moreover, the set of…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on a (not necessarily countable) graph E for the graph C*-algebra C*(E) to be primitive. Along with a known characterization of the graphs E for which C*(E) is prime, our main result provides…
We study families of self-adjoint operators with given spectra whose sum is a scalar operator. Such families are $*$-representations of certain algebras which can be described in terms of graphs and positive functions on them. The main…
We continue the study of $L^p$-operator algebras associated with directed graphs initiated by Corti\~nas and Rodr\'iguez, and we establish $L^p$-analogs of both the gauge-invariant and the Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorems. The first of…
All operator algebras have (not necessarily irreducible) boundary representations. A unital operator algebra has enough such boundary representations to generate its C*-envelope.
Motivated by Exel's inverse semigroup approach to combinatorial C*-algebras, in a previous work the authors defined an inverse semigroup associated with a labelled space. We construct a representation of the C*-algebra of a labelled space,…
The unions of directed graphs are the simplest examples of pushouts of directed graphs. The conditions under which they contravariantly induce surjective gauge-equivariant pullbacks of graph C*-algebras have been well studied and vastly…
We introduce a notion of ideal-related K-theory for rings, and use it to prove that if two complex Leavitt path algebras are Morita equivalent (respectively, isomorphic), then the ideal-related K-theories (respectively, the unital…
For $C^*$-algebra generated by a finite family of isometries $s_j$, $j=1,\dots,d$ satisfying $q_{ij}$-commutation relations \[ s_j^* s_j = I, \quad s_j^* s_k = q_{ij}s_ks_j^*, \qquad q_{ij} = \bar q_{ji}, |q_{ij}|<1, \ 1\le i \ne j \le d,…
In this paper, we introduce a C*-algebra associated to any substitution (via its Bratteli diagram model). We show that this C*-algebra contains the partial crossed product C*-algebra of the corresponding Bratteli-Vershik system and show…
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 compute explicitly (modulo solutions of certain algebraic equations) the spectra of infinite graphs obtained by attaching one or several infinite paths to some vertices of certain finite graphs. The main result concerns a canonical form…
Spielberg's construction of C*-algebras from left cancellative small categories is a common generalization for most C*-algebras one would consider to come from ``combinatorial data,'' including graph and $k$-graph C*-algebras, Li's…
The aim of this work is the description of the isomorphism classes of all Leavitt path algebras coming from graphs satisfying Condition (Sing) with up to three vertices. In particular, this classification recovers the one achieved by Abrams…
