On Leavitt path algebras of Hopf graphs

Abstract

In this paper, we provide the structure of Hopf graphs associated to pairs $(G, \mathfrak{r})$ consisting of groups $G$ together with ramification datas $\mathfrak{r}$ and their Leavitt path algebras. Consequently, we characterize the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, the stable rank, the purely infinite simplicity and the existence of a nonzero finite dimensional representation of the Leavitt path algebra of a Hopf graph via properties of ramification data $\mathfrak{r}$ and $G$.
