Abstract
Let be the Markov quiver, and let be an infinitely mutable potential for . We calculate some low degree refined BPS invariants for the resulting Jacobi algebra, and use them to show that the critical cohomological Hall algebra is not necessarily spherically generated, and is not independent of the choice of infinitely mutable potential . This leads to a counterexample to a conjecture of Gaiotto, Grygoryev and Li \cite[\S 2.1]{GGL}, but also suggestions for how to modify it. In the case of generic cubic , we discuss a way to modify the conjecture, by excluding the non-spherical part via the decomposition of according to the characters of a discrete symmetry group.
