Our motivation is to build a systematic method in order to investigate the structure of cluster algebras of geometric type. The method is given through the notion of mixing-type sub-seeds, the theory of seed homomorphisms and the view-point of gluing of seeds. As an application, for (rooted) cluster algebras, we completely classify rooted cluster subalgebras and characterize rooted cluster quotient algebras in detail. Also, we build the relationship between the categorifica...

We consider the mutation invariants of cluster algebras of rank 2. We characterize the mutation invariants of finite type. Two examples are provided for the affine type and we prove the non-existence of Laurent mutation invariants of non-affine type. As an application, a class of Diophantine equations encoded with cluster algebras are studied.

In this article, we introduce the notion of cluster automorphism of a given cluster algebra as a $\ZZ$-automorphism of the cluster algebra that sends a cluster to another and commutes with mutations. We study the group of cluster automorphisms in detail for acyclic cluster algebras and cluster algebras from surfaces, and we compute this group explicitly for the Dynkin types and the Euclidean types.

In this paper, we prove Conjecture 4.8 of "Cluster algebras IV" by S. Fomin and A. Zelevinsky, stating that the mutation classes of rectangular matrices associated with cluster algebras of finite type are precisely those classes which are finite.

Matrix mutation appears in the definition of cluster algebras of Fomin and Zelevinsky. We give a representation theoretic interpretation of matrix mutation, using tilting theory in cluster categories of hereditary algebras. Using this, we obtain a representation theoretical interpretation of cluster mutation in case of acyclic cluster algebras of finite type.

This paper continues the study of cluster algebras initiated in math.RT/0104151. Its main result is the complete classification of the cluster algebras of finite type, i.e., those with finitely many clusters. This classification turns out to be identical to the Cartan-Killing classification of semisimple Lie algebras and finite root systems, which is intriguing since in most cases, the symmetry exhibited by the Cartan-Killing type of a cluster algebra is not at all apparent f...

Let $\Delta$ be an oriented valued graph equipped with a group of admissible automorphisms satisfying a certain stability condition. We prove that the (coefficient-free) cluster algebra $\mathcal A(\Delta/G)$ associated to the valued quotient graph $\Delta/G$ is a subalgebra of the quotient $\pi(\mathcal A(\Delta))$ of the cluster algebra associated to $\Delta$ by the action of $G$. When $\Delta$ is a Dynkin diagram, we prove that $\mathcal A(\Delta/G)$ and $\pi(\mathcal A(\D...

This is an expanded version of the notes of our lectures given at the conference "Current Developments in Mathematics 2003" held at Harvard University on November 21--22, 2003. We present an overview of the main definitions, results and applications of the theory of cluster algebras.

We introduce quasi-homomorphisms of cluster algebras, a flexible notion of a map between cluster algebras of the same type (but with different coefficients). The definition is given in terms of seed orbits, the smallest equivalence classes of seeds on which the mutation rules for non-normalized seeds are unambiguous. We present examples of quasi-homomorphisms involving familiar cluster algebras, such as cluster structures on Grassmannians, and those associated with marked sur...

This is an extended abstract of my talk at the Oberwolfach-Workshop "Representation Theory of Finite-Dimensional Algebras" (February 6 - 12, 2005). It gives self-contained and simplified definitions of quantum cluster algebras introduced and studied in a joint work with A.Berenstein (math.QA/0404446).
