Abstract
A mutation cycle is a cycle in a graph whose vertices are labeled by the quivers in a given mutation class and whose edges correspond to single mutations. For any fixed , we describe arbitrarily long mutation cycles involving -vertex quivers. Each of these mutation cycles allows for an arbitrary choice of positive integer parameters. None of the mutation cycles we construct can be paved by short mutation cycles.
