Classification of Leavitt path algebras: How to use tools from
the classification of C*-algebras in the Algebra setting.
Monday, February 4 3pm, 646 PGH
Abstract
One of the main programs in the theory of C*-algebras is to classify
C*-algebras using invariants from K-theory. In this talk I'll discuss how
similar efforts have been attempted for noncommutative algebras,
particularly the Leavitt path algebras of a directed graph. These
classification results have connections with the symbolic dynamics of the
directed graph, and I will discuss the successes, limitations, and current
status of these efforts.
