Cycles in Leavitt path algebras by means of idempotents

Abstract

AbstractWe characterize, in terms of its idempotents, the Leavitt path algebras of an arbitrary graph that satisfies Condition (L) or Condition (NE). In the latter case, we also provide the structure of such algebras. Dual graph techniques are considered and demonstrated to be useful in the approach of the study of Leavitt path algebras of arbitrary graphs. A refining of the so-called Reduction Theorem is achieved and is used to prove that
