Abstract

Let QQ be a rank 3 mutation-cyclic quiver. It is known that every c\mathbf{c}-vector of QQ is a solution to a quadratic equation of the form i=13xi2+1i<j3±qijxixj=1,\sum_{i=1}^3 x_i^2 + \sum_{1\leq i<j\leq 3} \pm q_{ij} x_i x_j =1,where qijq_{ij} is the number of arrows between the vertices ii and jj in QQ. A similar property holds for c\mathbf{c}-vectors of any acyclic quiver. In this paper, we show that g\mathbf{g}-vectors of QQ enjoy an unexpected property. More precisely, every g\mathbf{g}-vector of QQ is a solution to a quadratic equation of the form i=13xi2+1i<j3pijxixj=1,\sum_{i=1}^3 x_i^2 + \sum_{1\leq i<j\leq 3} p_{ij} x_i x_j =1,where pijp_{ij} is the number of arrows between the vertices ii and jj in another quiver PP obtained by mutating QQ.
