A Leavitt path algebra associates to a directed graph a ℤ-graded algebra and in its simplest form it recovers the Leavitt algebra L(1, k). In this note, we first study this ℤ-grading and characterize the (ℤ-graded) structure of Leavitt path algebras, associated to finite acyclic graphs, Cn-comet, multi-headed graphs and a mixture of these graphs (i.e., polycephaly graphs). The last two types are examples of graphs whose Leavitt path algebras are strongly graded. We give a criterion when a… Expand

Induced quotient group gradings of epsilon-strongly graded rings
Let $G$ be a group and let $S=\bigoplus_{g \in G} S_g$ be a $G$-graded ring. Given a normal subgroup $N$ of $G$, there is a naturally induced $G/N$-grading of $S$. It is well-known that if $S$ is… Expand
Epsilon-strongly graded Leavitt path algebras
Given a directed graph $E$ and a unital ring $R$ one can define the Leavitt path algebra with coefficients in $R$, denoted by $L_R(E)$. For an arbitrary group $G$, $L_R(E)$ can be viewed as a… Expand
On graded irreducible representations of Leavitt path algebras
Using the E-algebraic systems, various graded irreducible representations of a Leavitt path algebra L of a graph E over a field K are constructed. The concept of a Laurent vertex is introduced and it… Expand
A Note on Invariant Basis Number and Types for Strongly Graded Rings
Given any pair of positive integers (n, k) and any nontrivial finite group G, we show that there exists a ring R of type (n, k) such that R is strongly graded by G and the identity component Re has… Expand
Irreducible representations of Leavitt algebras
For a weighted graph $E$, we construct representation graphs $F$, and consequently, $L_K(E)$-modules $V_F$, where $L_K(E)$ is the Leavitt path algebra associated to $E$, with coefficients in a field… Expand
Prime group graded rings with applications to partial crossed products and Leavitt path algebras
In this article we generalize a classical result by Passman on primeness of unital strongly group graded rings to the class of nearly epsilon-strongly group graded rings which are not necessarily… Expand
Properties of the gradings on ultragraph algebras via the underlying combinatorics
There are two established gradings on Leavitt path algebras associated with ultragraphs, namely the grading by the integers group and the grading by the free group on the edges. In this paper, we… Expand
Simple modules for Kumjian-Pask algebras
The paper introduces the notion of a representation k-graph (∆, α) for a given k-graph Λ. It is shown that any representation k-graph for Λ yields a module for the Kumjian-Pask algebra KP(Λ), and the… Expand
Weighted Leavitt path algebras -- an overview
Weighted Leavitt path algebras were introduced in 2013 by Roozbeh Hazrat. These algebras generalise simultaneously the usual Leavitt path algebras and William Leavitt’s algebras L(m,n). In this paper… Expand
A Survey of Some of the Recent Developments in Leavitt Path Algebras
In this survey article, we describe some of recent ring-theoretic and module-theoretic investigations of a Leavitt path algebra L of an arbitrary directed graph E over a field K. It is shown how a… Expand
