Abstract

The sign-coherence about cc-vectors was conjectured by Fomin-Zelevinsky and solved completely by Gross-Hacking-Keel-Kontsevich for integer skew-symmetrizable case. We prove this conjecture associated with cc-vectors for rank 3 real cluster-cyclic skew-symmetrizable case. Simultaneously, we establish their self-contained recursion and monotonicity. Then, these cc-vectors are proved to be roots of certain quadratic equations. Based on these results, we prove that the corresponding exchange graphs of CC-pattern and GG-pattern are 33-regular trees. We also study the structure of tropical signs and equip the dihedral group D6\mathrm{D}_6 with a cluster realization via certain mutations.
