Easy way to understand theta basis for X-cluster algebras of finite type?
For $\mathcal A$-cluster algebras of finite type, it is very easy to describe the theta-basis: it consists of the cluster monomials. Is there any similarly easy way to describe the theta-basis for $\...

What is a good introduction to cluster algebras from surfaces?
What is a good reference for cluster algebras from surfaces, with a view to their connection to Teichmuller theory?
In my view, that means it should start off with unpunctured surfaces (and in fact,...

Which cluster algebras are coordinate rings of double Bruhat cells?
Background
A uselessly vague paragraph follows. A cluster algebra is a commutative algebra $A$ with a distinguished set of generators called cluster variables. These cluster variables are grouped ...

Are cluster variables prime elements?
Cluster algebras introduction
A cluster algebra is a subalgebra $A$ of $k[x_1^{\pm1},...,x_n^{\pm1}]$ generated by a set of cluster variables, which are elements which can be generated from the set $\{...

"Cluster algebra" structure for finite distributive lattices
Let $P$ be an $n$-element poset and $J(P)$ the distributive lattice of its order ideals (i.e., the downwards-closed sets).
For each $I\in J(P)$ let $x_I \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be the indicator function ...

Non-crystallographic cluster algebras
Background
Fomin and Zelevinsky have introduced cluster algebras in an influential article. To define a cluster algebra, Fomin and Zelevinsky have defined a mutation of seeds. Here, a seed $(\mathbf{...

Do we have super Plucker relations for a super Grassmannian?
Super Grassmannians are introduced by Manin, see for example. We have Plucker relation for Grassmannian.
Are there some references about super Plucker relations for super Grassmannian? Thank you ...

Theta functions in acyclic cluster algebras
Setup: Let $B$ be a skew-symmetrisable integer matrix and $\mathcal{A}$ be the cluster algebra with principal coefficients at a seed with mutation matrix $\tilde{B}$ whose principal part is equal to $...

polynomials satisfying the Plücker relation
Let $S_{12}$, $S_{13}$, $S_{14}$, $S_{23}$, $S_{24}$, $S_{34}$ be complex homogeneous polynomials in 4 variables satisfying the Plücker relation :
$$S_{12}S_{34}-S_{13}S_{24}+S_{14}S_{23}=0 .$$

Kahler differentials on cluster varieties
On affine toric varieties there is a classical theorem of Danilov which gives some combinatorial ways to describe the global sections of an appropriate sheaf of Kahler differentials as a vector space. ...

Defining cluster algebras of finite type $\mathrm{A}$ by generators and relations
Consider a cluster algebra of finite type $\mathrm{A}$. The set of all (distinct) cluster variables is of finite cardinality, denote it by $k$, for such algebra. Is it true that, for an arbitrary ...

Tropical version of exchange relations in cluster algebras
The exchange relation in a cluster algebra is
\begin{align}
x_k' = \frac{1}{x_k} (\prod_{j \to k}x_j + \prod_{k \to j} x_j).
\end{align}
Do we have some tropical version of this relation? Are there ...

What are the cluster algebra structures on $Gr(3,5)$?
In the paper, cluster algebra structures on $Gr(2,n)$, $Gr(3,6)$, $Gr(3,7)$, $Gr(3,8)$, $Gr(4,6)$ are described. But what are the cluster algebra structures on $Gr(3,5)$ (and $Gr(3,4)$)? Do we have ...

About cluster variables obtained by (sequentially) mutating at exchangeable variables from an initial cluster
Let $\Sigma=(X,ex,B)$ be a seed, $\mathcal{A}(\Sigma)$ a corresponding geometric cluster algebra and $\mathcal{X}_{\Sigma}$ the set of all cluster variables of $\mathcal{A}(\Sigma)$. We call a ...
