Abstract

We study the relation between the cluster automorphisms and the quasi-automorphisms of a cluster algebra A\mathcal{A}. We proof that under some mild condition, satisfied for example by every skew-symmetric cluster algebra, the quasi-automorphism group of A\mathcal{A} is isomorphic to a subgroup of the cluster automorphism group of Atriv\mathcal{A}_{triv}, and the two groups are isomorphic if A\mathcal{A} has principal or universal coefficients; here Atriv\mathcal{A}_{triv} is the cluster algebra with trivial coefficients obtained from A\mathcal{A} by setting all frozen variables equal to the integer 1. We also compute the quasi-automorphism group of all finite type and all skew-symmetric affine type cluster algebras, and show in which types it is isomorphic to the cluster automorphism group of Atriv\mathcal{A}_{triv}.
