A frieze is an array of numbers obeying the unimodular rule. Coxeter showed that a frieze with integer entries corresponds to a triangulation. Recently, Holm and J{\o}rgenson introduced friezes of type $\Lambda_p$ which correspond to…

We define and study a continuous version of 2-frieze patterns, a combinatorial structure closely related with frieze patterns of Coxeter and Conway. We describe the relation of continuous 2-friezes with the moduli space of projective curves…

We count numbers of tame frieze patterns with entries in a finite commutative local ring. For the ring $\mathbb{Z}/p^r\mathbb{Z}$, $p$ a prime and $r\in\mathbb{N}$ we obtain closed formulae for all heights. These may be interpreted as…

In this article, we establish a relation between the values of a frieze of type D-tile and some values of an SL2-tiling t associated with a particular quiver of type A-tilde . This relation allows us to compute, independently of each other,…

We study the dependence of a cluster algebra on the choice of coefficients. We write general formulas expressing the cluster variables in any cluster algebra in terms of the initial data; these formulas involve a family of polynomials…

A classic result of Conway and Coxeter on frieze patterns has been generalized to a bijection between $p$-angulations of regular polygons and frieze patterns of type $\Lambda_p$. One of the features of Conway-Coxeter theory is a…

In this survey article we explain the intricate links between Conway-Coxeter friezes and cluster combinatorics. More precisely, we provide a formula, relying solely on the shape of the frieze, describing how each individual entry in the…

To any walk in a quiver, we associate a Laurent polynomial. When the walk is the string of a string module over a 2-Calabi-Yau tilted algebra, we prove that this Laurent polynomial coincides with the corresponding cluster character of the…

We establish a combinatorial realization of continued fractions as quotients of cardinalities of sets. These sets are sets of perfect matchings of certain graphs, the snake graphs, that appear naturally in the theory of cluster algebras. To…

The present paper show that Conway-Coxeter friezes of zigzag type are characterized by (unoriented) rational links. As an application of this characterization Jones polynomial can be defined for Conway-Coxeter friezes of zigzag type. This…

For cluster algebras from surfaces, there is a known formula for cluster variables and F-polynomials in terms of the perfect matchings of snake graphs. If the cluster algebra has trivial coefficients, there is also a known formula for…

We study a $2 \times 2$ matrix equation arising naturally in the theory of Coxeter frieze patterns. It is formulated in terms of the generators of the group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and is closely related to continued fractions. It…

We give an elementary account of the notion of Y-frieze patterns, explain some of their properties, and reveal their connection with Coxeter's frieze patterns.

We provide a characterization of infinite frieze patterns of positive integers via triangulations of an infinite strip in the plane. In the periodic case, these triangulations may be considered as triangulations of annuli. We also give a…

We consider quivers/skew-symmetric matrices under the action of mutation (in the cluster algebra sense). We classify those which are isomorphic to their own mutation via a cycle permuting all the vertices, and give families of quivers which…

We prove that the frieze sequences of cluster variables associated with the vertices of an affine quiver satisfy linear recurrence relations. In particular, we obtain a proof of a recent conjecture by Assem-Reutenauer-Smith.

We study non-zero integral friezes for Dynkin types $A_n$, $B_n$, $C_n$, $D_n$ and $G_2$. These differ from standard Coxeter-Conway (positive) friezes by allowing any non-zero integer to appear. In each case we show that there are either…
