Given a graph $G(V, E)$ and a positive integer $k$ ($k \geq 1$), a simple path on $k$ vertices is a sequence of $k$ vertices in which no vertex appears more than once and each consecutive pair of vertices in the sequence are connected by an…

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…

Let $E$ be an arbitrary directed graph and let $L$ be the Leavitt path algebra of the graph $E$ over a field $K$. The necessary and sufficient con- ditions are given to assure the existence of a maximal ideal in $L$ and also the necessary…

We obtain a complete structural characterization of Cohn-Leavitt algebras over no-exit objects as graded involutive algebras. Corollaries of this result include graph-theoretic conditions characterizing when a Leavitt path algebra is a…

Let $k$ be a field and let $E$ be a finite quiver. We study the structure of the finitely presented modules of finite length over the Leavitt path algebra $L_k (E)$ and show its close relationship with the finite-dimensional representations…

The stable rank of Leavitt path algebras of row-finite graphs was computed by Ara and Pardo. In this paper we extend this for an arbitrary directed graph. In some parts, we proceed our computation as the row-finite case while in some parts…

If $E$ is a directed graph, $K$ is a field, and $I$ is a graded ideal of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E),$ $I$ is completely determined by an admissible pair $(H,S)$ of two sets of vertices of $E$. The ideal $I=I(H,S)$ is graded isomorphic…

In this paper we completely describe graphically Leavitt path algebras with bounded index of nilpotence and show that each graded simple module $S$ over a Leavitt path algebra with bounded index of nilpotence is graded $\Sigma$-injective,…

Leavitt path algebras are free algebras subject to relations induced by directed graphs. This paper investigates the ideals of Leavitt path algebras, with an emphasis on the relationship between graph-theoretic properties of a directed…

For a postive integer $n$ and a subset $S$ of $\mathbb{Z}_n$, let $\left\langle S\right\rangle =\mathbb{Z}_n$, and $w:S\rightarrow\mathbb{N}$ be a function. The weighted Cayley graph of the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_n$ with respect to $S$…

We characterize ultragraph Leavitt path algebras that are Rickart, locally Rickart, graded Rickart, and graded Rickart *-rings. We also characterize ultragraph Leavitt path algebras that are Baer, locally Baer, graded Baer, Baer *-rings,…

In this paper, we first study properties of the lower central chains for Novikov algebras. Then we show that for every Lie nilpotent Novikov algebra~$\mathcal{N}$, the ideal of~$\mathcal{N}$ generated by the set~$\{ab - ba\mid a, b\in…

We prove that the Bowen-Franks group classifies the Leavitt path algebras of purely infinite simple finite graphs over a regular supercoherent commutative ring with involution where $2$ is invertible, equipped with their standard…

Given a simple undirected graph, one can construct from it a $c$-step nilpotent Lie algebra for every $c \geq 2$ and over any field $K$, in particular also over the real and complex numbers. These Lie algebras form an important class 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…

In this paper we characterize the minimal left ideals of a Leavitt path algebra as those ones which are isomorphic to principal left ideals generated by line point vertices, that is, by vertices whose trees do not contain neither…

To a directed graph $E$ is associated a $C^*$-algebra $C^* (E)$ called a graph $C^*$-algebra. There is a canonical action $\gamma$ of ${\bf T}$ on $C^* (E)$, called the gauge action. In this paper we present necessary and sufficient…

In this paper we introduce a new class of $K$-algebras associated with quivers. Given any finite chain $\mathbf{K}_r: K=K_0\subseteq K_1\subseteq ... \subseteq K_r$ of fields and a chain $\mathbf{E}_r : H_0\subset H_1\subset ... \subset…

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…

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…
