Stability conditions, cluster varieties, and Riemann-Hilbert problems from surfaces (Q2227296)

The author considers two spaces associated to a quiver with potential: a complex manifold parametrizing Bridgeland stability conditions on a certain \(3\)-Calabi-Yau triangulated category, and a cluster variety. They can be interpreted as moduli spaces of geometric structures on surfaces. \textit{T. Bridgeland} and \textit{I. Smith} [Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Étud. Sci. 121, 155--278 (2015; Zbl 1328.14025)] have shown that the space of stability conditions is isomorphic to a moduli space of meromorphic quadratic differentials, while \textit{V. V. Fock} and \textit{A. B. Goncharov} [Invent. Math. 175, No. 2, 223--286 (2009; Zbl 1183.14037)] have proved that the cluster variety is birational to a moduli space of local systems equipped with additional framing data. The author shows that if the quiver with potential arises from an ideal triangulation of a marked bordered surface, then one can construct a natural map from a dense subset of the space of stability conditions to the cluster variety. Using this construction, he gives solutions to a family of Riemann-Hilbert problems arising in Donaldson-Thomas theory.
