Frieze patterns of numbers, introduced in the early 70's by Coxeter, are currently attracting much interest due to connections with the recent theory of cluster algebras. The present paper aims to review the original work of Coxeter and the…

The famous theorem of Conway and Coxeter on frieze patterns gave a geometric interpretation to integral friezes via triangulations of polygons. In this article, we review this result and show some of the development it has led to. The last…

Frieze patterns are numerical arrangements that satisfy a local arithmetic rule. These arrangements are actively studied in connection to the theory of cluster algebras. In the setting of cluster algebras, the notion of a frieze pattern can…

Originally studied by Conway and Coxeter, friezes appeared in various recreational mathematics publications in the 1970s. More recently, in 2015, Baur, Parsons, and Tschabold constructed periodic infinite friezes and related them to…

Frieze patterns, as introduced by Coxeter in the 1970's, are closely related to cluster algebras without coefficients. A suitable generalization of frieze patterns, linked to cluster algebras with coefficients, has only briefly appeared in…

Frieze patterns are combinatorial objects that are deeply related to cluster theory. Determinants of frieze patterns arise from triangular regions of the frieze, and they have been considered in previous works by Broline-Crowe-Isaacs, and…

Frieze patterns have an interesting combinatorial structure, which has proven very useful in the study of cluster algebras. We introduce $(k,n)$-frieze patterns, a natural generalisation of the classical notion. A generalisation of the…

Frieze patterns have attracted significant attention recently, motivated by their relationship with cluster algebras. A longstanding open problem has been to provide a combinatorial model for frieze patterns over the ring of integers modulo…

This article, based on joint work with Gabriel Carroll, Andy Itsara, Ian Le, Gregg Musiker, Gregory Price, Dylan Thurston, and Rui Viana, presents a combinatorial model based on perfect matchings that explains the symmetries of the…

For a cluster algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ of geometric type, a $\textit{frieze}$ of $\mathcal{A}$ is defined to be a $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra homomorphism from $\mathcal{A}$ to $\mathbb{Q}$ that takes positive integer values on all…

Motivated by Conway and Coxeter's combinatorial results concerning frieze patterns, we sketch an introduction to the theory of cluster algebras and cluster categories for acyclic quivers. The goal is to show how these more abstract theories…

Frieze patterns (in the sense of Conway and Coxeter) are related to cluster algebras of type A and to signed continuant polynomials. In view of studying certain classes of cluster algebras with coefficients, we extend the concept of signed…

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…

In this article, we construct SL$_k$-friezes using Pl\"ucker coordinates, making use of the cluster structure on the homogeneous coordinate ring of the Grassmannian of $k$-spaces in $n$-space via the Pl\"ucker embedding. When this cluster…

Conway and Coxeter have shown that frieze patterns over positive rational integers are in bijection with triangulations of polygons. An investigation of frieze patterns over other subsets of the complex numbers has recently been initiated…

Motivated by cluster ensembles, we introduce a new variant of frieze patterns associated to acyclic cluster algebras, which we call ${\bf Y}\textit{-frieze patterns}$. Using the mutation rules for ${\bf Y}$-variables, we define a large…

We study (tame) frieze patterns over subsets of the complex numbers, with particular emphasis on the corresponding quiddity cycles. We provide new general transformations for quiddity cycles of frieze patterns. As one application, we…

A frieze on a polygon is a map from the diagonals of the polygon to an integral domain which respects the Ptolemy relation. Conway and Coxeter previously studied positive friezes over $\mathbb{Z}$ and showed that they are in bijection with…

We define the notion of infinite friezes of positive integers as a variation of Conway-Coxeter frieze patterns and study their properties. We introduce useful gluing and cutting operations on infinite friezes. It turns out that…

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…
