On Leavitt path algebras of Hopf graphs

In this paper, we provide the structure of Hopf graphs associated to pairs $(G, \mathfrak{r})$ consisting of groups $G$ together with ramification datas $\mathfrak{r}$ and their Leavitt path algebras. Consequently, we characterize the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, the stable rank, the purely infinite simplicity and the existence of a nonzero finite dimensional representation of the Leavitt path algebra of a Hopf graph via properties of ramification data $\mathfrak{r}$ and $G$.

On the ideals of ultragraph Leavitt path algebras

In this article, we provide an explicit description of a set of generators for any ideal of an ultragraph Leavitt path algebra. We provide several additional consequences of this description, including information about generating sets for graded ideals, the graded uniqueness and Cuntz-Krieger theorems, the semiprimeness, and the semiprimitivity of ultragraph Leavitt path algebras, a complete characterization of the prime and primitive ideals of an ultragraph Leavitt path algebra. We also show that every primitive ideal of an ultragraph Leavitt path algebra is exactly the annihilator of a Chen simple module. Consequently, we prove Exel's Effros-Hahn conjecture on primitive ideals in the ultragraph Leavitt path algebra setting (a conclusion that is also new in the context of Leavitt path algebras of graphs).

Realizing ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras

In this article, we realize ultragraph Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras. This realization allows us to use the groupoid approach to obtain structural results about these algebras. Using skew product groupoid, we show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras are graded von Neumann regular rings. We characterize strongly graded ultragraph Leavitt path algebras and show that every ultragraph Leavitt path algebra is semiprimitive. Moreover, we characterize irreducible representations of ultragraph Leavitt path algebras. We also show that ultragraph Leavitt path algebras can be realized as Cuntz-Pimsner rings.

Realizing corners of Leavitt path algebras as Steinberg algebras, with corresponding connections to graph $C^*$-algebras

We show that the endomorphism ring of any nonzero finitely generated projective module over the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of an arbitrary graph $E$ with coefficients in a field $K$ is isomorphic to a Steinberg algebra. This yields in particular that every nonzero corner of the Leavitt path algebra of an arbitrary graph is isomorphic to a Steinberg algebra. This in its turn gives that every $K$-algebra with local units which is Morita equivalent to the Leavitt path algebra of a row-countable graph is isomorphic to a Steinberg algebra. Moreover, we prove that a corner by a projection of a $C^*$-algebra of a countable graph is isomorphic to the $C^*$-algebra of an ample groupoid.

Irreducible representation-types of Leavitt path algebras

Irreducible representations of both Leavitt and Cohn path algebras of an arbitrary digraph with coefficients in a commutative field is classified. They are constructed in several ways using both infinite paths on the right as well as direct limits or factors of one-sided projective ideals of the ordinary quiver algebra, respectively. Furthermore, their defining relations are described, too, whence criterions are easily given when they are finitely presented or finite dimensional. Moreover, their endomorphism rings, annihilator primitive ideals are also computed directly. In particular, the cardinality of the set of sinks or infinite emitters, respectively, is an invariant of Leavitt path algebras.

Corners of Leavitt path algebras of finite graphs are Leavitt path algebras

We achieve an extremely useful description (up to isomorphism) of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of a finite graph $E$ with coefficients in a field $K$ as a direct sum of matrix rings over $K$, direct sum with a corner of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(F)$ of a graph $F$ for which every regular vertex is the base of a loop. Moreover, in this case one may transform the graph $E$ into the graph $F$ via some step-by-step procedure, using the "source elimination" and "collapsing" processes. We use this to establish the main result of the article, that every nonzero corner of a Leavitt path algebra of a finite graph is isomorphic to a Leavitt path algebra. Indeed, we prove a more general result, to wit, that the endomorphism ring of any nonzero finitely generated projective $L_K(E)$-module is isomorphic to the Leavitt path algebra of a graph explicitly constructed from $E$. Consequently, this yields in particular that every unital $K$-algebra which is Morita equivalent to a Leavitt path algebra is indeed isomorphic to a Leavitt path algebra.

Toward Homological Characterization of Semirings by e-Injective Semimodules

In this paper, we introduce and study e-injective semimodules, in particular over additively idempotent semirings. We completely characterize semirings all of whose semimodules are e-injective, describe semirings all of whose projective semimodules are e-injective, and characterize one-sided Noetherian rings in terms of direct sums of e-injective semimodules. Also, we give complete characterizations of bounded distributive lattices, subtractive semirings, and simple semirings, all of whose cyclic (finitely generated) semimodules are e-injective.

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 some certain classes of finite graphs for which Leavitt path algebras having Invariant Basis Number.

Leavitt path algebras having Unbounded Generating Number

We present a result of P. Ara which establishes that the Unbounded Generating Number property is a Morita invariant for unital rings. Using this, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a graph $E$ so that the Leavitt path algebra associated to $E$ has UGN. We conclude by identifying the graphs for which the Leavitt path algebra is (equivalently) directly finite; stably finite; Hermite; and has cancellation of projectives.

Toward Homological Structure Theory of Semimodules: On Semirings All of Whose Cyclic Semimodules Are Projective

In this paper, we introduce homological structure theory of semirings and CP-semirings---semirings all of whose cyclic semimodules are projective. We completely describe semisimple, Gelfand, subtractive, and anti-bounded, CP-semirings. We give complete characterizations of congruence-simple subtractive and congruence-simple anti-bounded CP-semirings, which solve two earlier open problems for these classes of semirings. We also study in detail the properties of semimodules over Boolean algebras whose endomorphism semirings are CP-semirings; and, as a consequence of this result, we give a complete description of ideal-simple CP-semirings.

On V-Semirings and Semirings all of whose Cyclic Semimodules are Injective

In this paper, we introduce and study V- and CI-semirings---semirings all of whose simple and cyclic, respectively, semimodules are injective. We describe V-semirings for some classes of semirings and establish some fundamental properties of V-semirings. We show that all Jacobson-semisimple V-semirings are V-rings. We also completely describe the bounded distributive lattices, Gelfand, subtractive, semisimple, and anti-bounded, semirings that are CI-semirings. Applying these results, we give complete characterizations of congruence-simple subtractive and congruence-simple anti-bounded CI-semirings which solve two earlier open problems for these classes of CI-semirings.

On Radicals of Semirings and Related Problems

The aim of this paper is to develop an `external' Kurosh-Amitsur radical theory of semirings and, using this approach, to obtain some fundamental results regarding two Jacobson type of radicals --- the Jacobson-Bourne, J-, radical and a very natural its variation, J_{s}-radical --- of hemirings, as well as the Brown-McCoy, R_{BM}-, radical of hemirings. Among the new central results of the paper, we single out the following ones: Theorems unifying two, internal and external, approches to the Kurosh-Amitzur radical theory of hemirings; A characterization of J-semisimple hemirings; A description of J-semisimple congruence-simple hemirings; A characterization of finite additively-idempotent J_{s}-semisimple hemirings; Complete discriptions of R_{BM}-semisimple commutative and lattice-ordered hemirings; Semiring versions of the well-known classical ring results---Nakayama's and Hopkins Lemmas and Jacobson-Chevalley Density Theorem; Establishing the fundamental relationship between the radicals J, J_{s}, and R_{BM} of hemirings R and matrix hemirings M_{n}(R); Establishing the matric-extensibleness of the radical classes of the Jacobson, Brown-McCoy, and J_{s}-, radicals of hemirings; Showing that the J-semisimplicity, J_{s}-semisimplicity, and R_{BM}-semisimplicity of semirings are Morita invariant properties.
