The Leavitt path algebras of arbitrary graphs

چکیده
We extend the notion of the Leavitt path algebra of a graph E to include all directed graphs. We show how various ring-theoretic properties of these more general structures relate to the corresponding properties of Leavitt path algebras of row-finite graphs. Specifically, we identify those graphs for which the corresponding Leavitt path algebra is simple; purely infinite simple; exchange; and semiprime. In our final result, we show that all Leavitt path algebras have zero Jacobson radical.

Socle Theory for Leavitt Path Algebras of Arbitrary Graphs
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 characterize it, respectively. Leavitt path algebras with nonzero socle are described as those which have line points, and it is shown that the line points generate ...
متن کاملLeavitt Path Algebras and Direct Limits
An introduction to Leavitt path algebras of arbitrary directed graphs is presented, and direct limit techniques are developed, with which many results that had previously been proved for countable graphs can be extended to uncountable ones. Such results include characterizations of simplicity, characterizations of the exchange property, and cancellation conditions for the K-theoretic monoid of ...
متن کاملFlow Invariants in the Classification of Leavitt Path Algebras
We analyze in the context of Leavitt path algebras some graph operations introduced in the context of symbolic dynamics by Williams, Parry and Sullivan, and Franks. We show that these operations induce Morita equivalence of the corresponding Leavitt path algebras. As a consequence we obtain our two main results: the first gives sufficient conditions for which the Leavitt path algebras in a cert...
متن کاملTowards a K-theoretic Characterization of Graded Isomorphisms between Leavitt Path Algebras
In [16], Hazrat gave a K-theoretic invariant for Leavitt path algebras as graded algebras. Hazrat conjectured that this invariant classifies Leavitt path algebras up to graded isomorphism, and proved the conjecture in some cases. In this paper, we prove that a weak version of the conjecture holds for all finite essential graphs.
متن کاملWeakly Noetherian Leavitt Path Algebras
We study row-finite Leavitt path algebras. We characterize the row-finite graphs E for which the Leavitt path algebra is weakly Noetherian. Our main result is that a Leavitt path algebra is weakly Noetherian if and only if there is ascending chain condition on the hereditary and saturated closures of the subsets of the vertices of the graph E.
