We show that, for an arbitrary graph, a regular ideal of the associated Leavitt path algebra is also graded. As a consequence, for a row-finite graph, we obtain that the quotient of the associated Leavitt path by a regular ideal is again a…

In this note we prove that the algebras $L_K(E)$ and $KE$ have the same entropy. Entropy is always referred to the standard filtrations in the corresponding kind of algebra. The main argument leans on (1) the holomorphic functional…

For any field $\K$ and integer $n\geq 2$ we consider the Leavitt algebra $L_\K(n)$; for any integer $d\geq 1$ we form the matrix ring $S = M_d(L_\K(n))$. $S$ is an associative algebra, but we view $S$ as a Lie algebra using the bracket…

The purpose of this paper is to provide a common framework for studying various generalizations of Leavitt algebras and Leavitt path algebras. This paper consists of two parts. In part I we define Cohn-Leavitt path algebras of a new class…

Given an arbitrary graph E and a field K, the prime ideals as well as the primitive ideals of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) are completely described in terms of their generators. The stratification of the prime spectrum of L_K(E) is…

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…

Leavitt path algebras associate to directed graphs a $\mathbb Z$-graded algebra and in their simplest form recover the Leavitt algebras L(1,n). In this note, we introduce iterated Leavitt path algebras associated to directed weighted graphs…

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…

In this paper, we give a complete characterization of Leavitt path algebras which are graded $\Sigma $-$V$ rings, that is, rings over which a direct sum of arbitrary copies of any graded simple module is graded injective. Specifically, we…

For any countable graph $E$, we investigate the relationship between the Leavitt path algebra $L_{\C}(E)$ and the graph C*-algebra $C^*(E)$. For graphs $E$ and $F$, we examine ring homomorphisms, ring *-homomorphisms, algebra homomorphisms,…

In this paper, we describe the $K$-module $HH^1(L_K(\Gamma))$ of outer derivations of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(\Gamma)$ of a row-finite graph $\Gamma$ with coefficients in an associative commutative ring $K$ with unit. We give an…

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…

In this paper, we prove that the multiplicative group of a unital non-commutative Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ and Cohn path algebra $C_K(E)$ contain a non-cyclic free subgroup, provided $K$ is a non-absolute field. We also provide a…

Let $R$ be a unital ring, let $E$ be a directed graph and recall that the Leavitt path algebra $L_R(E)$ carries a natural $\mathbb{Z}$-gradation. We show that $L_R(E)$ is strongly $\mathbb{Z}$-graded if and only if $E$ is row-finite, has no…

We determine the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of a weighted Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E,w)$ where $K$ is a field and $(E,w)$ a finite weighted graph. Further we show that a finite-dimensional weighted Leavitt path algebra over a field $K$ is…

We show that the long exact sequence for K-groups of Leavitt path algebras deduced by Ara, Brustenga, and Cortinas extends to Leavitt path algebras of countable graphs with infinite emitters in the obvious way. Using this long exact…

Given a graph E we define E-algebraic branching systems, show their existence and how they induce representations of the associated Leavitt path algebra. We also give sufficient conditions to guarantee faithfulness of the representations…

In sharp contrast to the Abrams-Rangaswamy Theorem that the only von Neumann regular Leavitt path algebras are exactly those associated to acyclic graphs, here we prove that the Leavitt path algebra of any arbitrary graph is a graded von…

We realize Leavitt ultragraph path algebras as partial skew group rings. Using this realization we characterize artinian ultragraph path algebras and give simplicity criteria for these algebras.

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…
