Solution of a Problem in Monoidal Categorification by Additive Categorification

Abstract

In 2021, Kashiwara-Kim-Oh-Park constructed cluster algebra structures on the Grothendieck rings of certain monoidal subcategories of the category of finite-dimensional representations of a quantum loop algebra, generalizing Hernandez-Leclerc's pioneering work from 2010. They stated the problem of finding explicit quivers for the seeds they used. We provide a solution by using Palu's generalized mutation rule applied to the cluster categories associated with certain algebras of global dimension at most 2, for example tensor products of path algebras of representation-finite quivers. Thus, our method is based on (and contributes to) the bridge, provided by cluster combinatorics, between the representation theory of quantum groups and that of quivers with relations.
