Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We define Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs generalizing simultaneously Leavitt path algebras of finitely separated graphs and Leavitt path algebras of row-finite vertex-weighted graphs. We find linear bases for those algebras, compute their Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, obtain some results on ring-theoretic properties like simplicity, von Neumann regularity and Noetherianess and investigate their K-theory and graded K-theory. By doing so we obtain new results on the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension and graded K-theory of Leavitt path algebras of separated graphs and on the graded K-theory of weighted Leavitt path algebras.


The author defines Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs. This class of algebras unifies Leavitt path algebras of separated graphs and Leavitt path algebras of vertex-weighted graphs (a weighted graph is vertex-weighted if any two edges emitted by the same vertex have the same weight). The author shows results on Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs related to linear bases, Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, and some ring-theoretic properties such are being simple, Artinian, Noetherian, von Neumann regular, and being a domain. The author describes the monoid of the isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective modules and the monoid of the graded isomorphism classes of finitely generated graded projective modules over the Leavitt path algebra of a hypergraph.
