SIMPLICITY OF LEAVITT PATH ALGEBRAS VIA GRADED RING THEORY

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Suppose that R is an associative unital ring and that E=(E0,E1,r,s) is a directed graph. Utilizing results from graded ring theory we show, that the associated Leavitt path algebra LR(E) is simple if and only if R is simple, E0 has no nontrivial hereditary and saturated subset, and every cycle in E has an exit. We also give a complete description of the center of a simple Leavitt path algebra.
