The injective envelope of simple modules over Leavitt path algebras I: simple left ideals
Abstract
Let K be any field and E any directed graph. We characterize up to isomorphism the simple (i.e., minimal) left ideals of the Leavitt path algebra LK(E). Then, for each simple %(i.e., minimal) left ideal I of %the Leavitt path algebra LK(E), we explicitly construct the injective envelope of I. This result generalizes to all graphs E and all simple left ideals in LK(E) the construction presented previously by the three authors for the specific case of the Jacobson algebra R=K⟨ X,Y | XY=1⟩ and the simple left R-ideal R(1−YX). Our method involves defining an LK(E)-module structure on a K-vector space of infinite series. We conclude the article by showing how our construction directly gives a description of the injective envelope of simple LK(E)-modules arising from two types of infinite emitters in E.
