Abstract: Kontsevich and Soibelman defined Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a 3d Calabi-Yau category equipped with a stability condition. Any cluster variety gives rise to a family of such categories. Their DT invariants are encapsulated in a single formal automorphism of the cluster variety, called the DT-transformation. Let S be an oriented surface with punctures, and a finite number of special points on the boundary considered modulo isotopy. It give rise to a moduli space X(m, S), closely related to the moduli space of PGL(m)-local systems on S, which carries a canonical cluster Poisson variety structure. For each puncture of S, there is a birational Weyl group action on the space X(m, S). We prove that it is given by cluster Poisson transformations. We prove a similar result for the involution * of the space X(m,S) provided by dualising a local system on S. We calculate the DT-transformation of the moduli space X(m,S), with few exceptions. Namely, let C(m,S) be the transformation of the space X(m,S) given by the product of three commuting maps: the involution *, the product, over all punctures of S, of the longest element of the Weyl group action corresponding to the puncture, and the "shift of the special points on the boundary by one" map. Using a characterisation of a class of DT-transformations due to Keller, we prove that C(m,S) = DT. We prove that, burring few exceptions, the Weyl group and the involution * act by cluster transformations of the dual moduli space A(m, S). So the formula C(m,S) = DT is valid for the space A(m,S). Our main result, combined with the work of Gross, Hacking, Keel and Kontsevich, deliver a canonical basis in the space of regular functions on the cluster variety X(m,S), and in the upper cluster algebra with principal coefficients related to the pair (SL(m), S), with few exceptions.
