Abstract: Let $E$ be a directed graph, $K$ any field, and let $L_K(E)$ denote the Leavitt path algebra of $E$ with coefficients in $K$. For each rational infinite path $c^{i}nfty$ of $E$ we explicitly construct a projective resolution of the corresponding Chen simple left $L_K(E)$-module $V_{[c^{i}nfty]}$. Further, when $E$ is row-finite, for each irrational infinite path $p$ of $E$ we explicitly construct a projective resolution of the corresponding Chen simple left $L_K(E)$-module $V_{[p]}$. For Chen simple modules $S,T$ we describe ${mExt}_{L_K(E)}^1(S,T)$ by presenting an explicit $K$-basis. For any graph $E$ containing at least one cycle, this description guarantees the existence of indecomposable left $L_K(E)$-modules of any prescribed finite length.

Review text

Let \(E\) be a directed graph, \(K\) any field, and let \(L_K(E)\) denote the Leavitt path algebra of \(E\) with coefficients in \(K\). Let \(p\) be an infinite path in the graph \(E\), and let \(V_{[p]}\) denote the \(K\)-vector space having basis \([p]\), that is, having basis consisting of distinct elements of \(E^\infty\) (the set of all infinite paths) which are tail-equivalent to \(p\). This vector space can be endowed with a left \(L_K(E)\)-module structure which (as proved by Chen) turns out to be simple. The authors use rational infinite paths \(c^\infty\) of \(E\) to construct a projective resolution of the corresponding Chen simple left \(L_K(E)\)-module \(V_{[c^\infty]}\). On the other hand, in the row-finite case, for each irrational infinite path \(p\) of \(E\), it is constructed a projective resolution of the corresponding Chen simple left \(L_K(E)\)-module \(V_{[p]}\). Also the work under review describes \(\text{Ext}^1_{L_K(E)}(S,T)\) for Chen simple modules \(S\), \(T\) by presenting an explicit \(K\)-basis. For any graph \(E\) containing at least one cycle, this description guarantees the existence of indecomposable left \(L_K(E)\)-modules of any prescribed finite length.
