Abstract

Let Σ=(Σ,M,O)\mathbf{\Sigma}=(\Sigma,M,O) be a surface with marked points and order-2 orbifold points which is either unpunctured or once-punctured closed, and ω:O{1,4}\omega:O\rightarrow\{1,4\} a function. For each triangulation τ\tau of Σ\mathbf{\Sigma} we construct a cochain complex C(τ,ω)C^\bullet(\tau,\omega). A colored triangulation is defined to be a pair consisting of a triangulation τ\tau and a 1-cocycle of C(τ,ω)C^\bullet(\tau,\omega); the combinatorial notion of colored flip of colored triangulations is then defined as a refinement of the notion of flip of triangulations. Our main construction associates to each colored triangulation a species and a potential, and our main result shows that colored triangulations related by a colored flip have SPs related by the corresponding SP-mutation. We define the flip graph of (Σ,M,O,ω)(\Sigma,M,O,\omega), whose vertices are the pairs (τ,x)(\tau,x) with τ\tau a triangulation and xx a cohomology class in H1(C(τ,ω))H^1(C^\bullet(\tau,\omega)), with an edge between (τ,x)(\tau,x) and (σ,z)(\sigma,z) iff (τ,ξ)(\tau,\xi) and (σ,ζ)(\sigma,\zeta) are related by a colored flip for some cocycles ξ\xi and ζ\zeta respectively representing xx and zz. We prove that this graph is disconnected if Σ\Sigma is not contractible. For unpunctured surfaces we show that (τ,ξ)(\tau,\xi) and (τ,ξ)(\tau,\xi') yield isomorphic Jacobian algebras if and only if [ξ]=[ξ][\xi]=[\xi'] in cohomology. We prove that every SP-realization of any (τ,ω)(\tau,\omega) via a non-degenerate SP over a cyclic Galois extension with certain roots of unity is right-equivalent to one of the SPs we construct here. The species constructed here are species realizations of the 2O2^{|O|} skew-symmetrizable matrices assigned by Felikson-Shapiro-Tumarkin to any given τ\tau. In the prequel to this paper we realized only one of these matrices via species, but therein we allowed the presence of arbitrarily many punctures.
