New combinatorial formulas for cluster monomials of type \(A\) quivers



Abstract: Lots of research focuses on the combinatorics behind various bases of cluster algebras. This paper studies the natural basis of a type A cluster algebra, which consists of all cluster monomials. We introduce a new kind of combinatorial formulas for the cluster monomials in terms of the so-called globally compatible collections. We give bijective proofs of these formulas by comparing with the well-known combinatorial models of the T-paths and of the perfect matchings in a snake diagram. For cluster variables of a type A cluster algebra, we give a bijection that relates our new formula with the theta functions constructed by Gross, Hacking, Keel and Kontsevich.


Summary: Lots of research focuses on the combinatorics behind various bases of cluster algebras. This paper studies the natural basis of a type \(A\) cluster algebra, which consists of all cluster monomials. We introduce a new kind of combinatorial formula for the cluster monomials in terms of the so-called globally compatible collections. We give bijective proofs of these formulas by comparing with the well-known combinatorial models of the \(T\)-paths and of the perfect matchings in a snake diagram. For cluster variables of a type \(A\) cluster algebra, we give a bijection that relates our new formula with the theta functions constructed by \textit{M. Gross} et al. [J. Am. Math. Soc. 31, No. 2, 497--608 (2018; Zbl 1446.13015)].
