Weighted Leavitt path algebras that are isomorphic to unweighted Leavitt path algebras (Q2040633)

Let \(K\) be a field. This work deals with the characterization of row-finite weighted graphs \((E, w)\) such that the weighted Leavitt path algebra \(L_K(E, w)\) is isomorphic to an unweighted Leavitt path algebra. The author defines a series of conditions LPA1-LPA4 such that if \((E,w)\) satisfies these conditions then \(L_K(E, w)\) is isomorphic to a unweighted Leavitt path algebra. It is also proved that if \(K\) be a field and \((E, w)\) a row-finite weighted graph, then if \((E, w)\) does not satisfy any of LPA1-LPA4, then there is no field \(K'\) and graph \(F\) (row-finite or not) such that with \(L_K(E, w)\cong L_{K'}(F)\) as rings. It is also proved that if \(L_K(E, w)\) is locally finite, or Noetherian, or Artinian, or von Neumann regular, or has finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, then \(L_K(E, w)\) is isomorphic to an unweighted Leavitt path algebra.
