英文摘要：

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on a (not necessarily countable) graph E for the graph C*-algebra C*(E) to be primitive. Along with a known characterization of the graphs E for which C*(E) is prime, our main result provides us with a systematic method for easily producing large classes of (necessarily nonseparable) C*-algebras that are prime but not primitive. We also compare and contrast our results with similar results for Leavitt path algebras.

Prime and Primitive Ideals of Ultragraph Leavitt Path Algebras

Let $\mathcal G$ be an ultragraph and let $K$ be a field. We describe prime and primitive ideals in the ultragraph Leavitt path algebra $L_K(\mathcal G)$. We identify the graded prime ideals in terms of downward directed sets and then we characterize the non-graded prime ideals. We show that the non-graded prime ideals of $L_K(\mathcal G)$ are always primitive.

The prime spectrum and primitive ideal space of a graph C*-algebra

We describe primitive and prime ideals in the C*-algebra C*(E) of a graph E satisfying Condition (K), together with the topologies on each of these spaces. In particular, we find that primitive ideals correspond to the set of maximal tails disjoint union the set of finite-return vertices, and that prime ideals correspond to the set of clusters of maximal tails disjoint union the set of finite-return vertices.

The Theory of Prime Ideals of Leavitt Path Algebras over Arbitrary Graphs

Given an arbitrary graph E and a field K, the prime ideals as well as the primitive ideals of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) are completely described in terms of their generators. The stratification of the prime spectrum of L_K(E) is indicated with information on its individual stratum. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given on the graph E under which every prime ideal of L_K(E) is primitive. Leavitt path algebras of Krull dimension zero are characterized and those with various prescribed Krull dimension are constructed. The minimal prime ideals of L_K(E) are are described in terms of …

Graph $C^\ast$-algebras with a $T_1$ primitive ideal space

We give necessary and sufficient conditions which a graph should satisfy in order for its associated $C^\ast$-algebra to have a $T_1$ primitive ideal space. We give a description of which one-point sets in such a primitive ideal space are open, and use this to prove that any purely infinite graph $C^\ast$-algebra with a $T_1$ (in particular Hausdorff) primitive ideal space, is a $c_0$-direct sum of Kirchberg algebras. Moreover, we show that graph $C^\ast$-algebras with a $T_1$ primitive ideal space canonically may be given the structure of a $C(\widetilde{\mathbb N})$-algebra, and that isomorp…

On the Primitive Ideals of Nest Algebras

We show that Ringrose's diagonal ideals are primitive ideals in a nest algebra (subject to the Continuum Hypothesis). This provides for the first time concerete descriptions of enough primitive ideals to obtain the Jacobson radical as their intersection. Separately, we provide a standard form for all left ideals of a nest algebra, which leads to insights into the maximal left ideals. In the case of atomic nest algebras we show how primitive ideals can be categorized by their behaviour on the diagonal, and provide concrete examples of all types.

The primitive ideals of some étale groupoid C*-algebras

Consider the Deaconu-Renault groupoid of an action of a finitely generated free abelian monoid by local homeomorphisms of a locally compact Hausdorff space. We catalogue the primitive ideals of the associated groupoid C*-algebra. For a special class of actions we describe the Jacobson topology.

The primitive ideals of the Cuntz-Krieger algebra of a row-finite higher-rank graph with no sources

We catalogue the primitive ideals of the Cuntz-Krieger algebra of a row-finite higher-rank graph with no sources. Each maximal tail in the vertex set has an abelian periodicity group of finite rank at most that of the graph; the primitive ideals in the Cuntz-Krieger algebra are indexed by pairs consisting of a maximal tail and a character of its periodicity group. The Cuntz-Krieger algebra is primitive if and only if the whole vertex set is a maximal tail and the graph is aperiodic.

A class of C^-algebras generalizing both graph algebras and homeomorphism C^-algebras III, ideal structures

We investigate the ideal structures of the C^*-algebras arising from topological graphs. We give the complete description of ideals of such C^*-algebras which are invariant under the so-called gauge action, and give the condition on topological graphs so that all ideals are invariant under the gauge action. We get conditions for our C^*-algebras to be simple, prime or primitive. We completely determine the prime ideals, and show that most of them are primitive. Finally, we construct a discrete graph such that the associated C^*-algebra is prime but not primitive.

Aperiodicity and the primitive ideal space of a row-finite $k$-graph $C^*$-algebra

We describe the primitive ideal space of the $C^{\ast}$-algebra of a row-finite $k$-graph with no sources when every ideal is gauge invariant. We characterize which spectral spaces can occur, and compute the primitive ideal space of two examples. In order to do this we prove some new results on aperiodicity. Our computations indicate that when every ideal is gauge invariant, the primitive ideal space only depends on the 1-skeleton of the $k$-graph in question.

The full group C*-algebra of the modular group is primitive

We show that the full group C$^*$-algebra of $PSL(n, \Z)$ is primitive when $n=2$, and not primitive when $n\geq 3$. Moreover, we show that there exists an uncountable family of pairwise inequivalent, faithful irreducible representations of $C^*(PSL(2,\Z))$.

Primitive Ideals of Labelled Graph $C^*$-algebras

Given a directed graph $E$ and a labeling $\mathcal{L}$, one forms the labelled graph $C^*$-algebra by taking a weakly left--resolving labelled space $(E, \mathcal{L}, \mathcal{B})$ and considering a universal generating family of partial isometries and projections. In this paper we provide characterization for primitive ideals of labelled graph $C^*$-algebras.
