The Kauffman bracket skein algebra is a quantization of the algebra of regular functions on the $SL_2$ character variety of a topological surface. We realize the skein algebra of the $4$-punctured sphere as the output of a mirror symmetry…
We review some important results by Gross, Hacking, Keel, and Kontsevich on cluster algebra theory, namely, the column sign-coherence of $C$-matrices and the Laurent positivity, both of which were conjectured by Fomin and Zelevinsky. We…
We show that the coordinate ring of an open positroid variety coincides with the cluster algebra associated to a Postnikov diagram. This confirms conjectures of Postnikov, Muller--Speyer, and Leclerc, and generalizes results of Scott and…
We analyze the $G$-skein theory invariants of the 3-torus $T^3$ and the two-torus $T^2$, for the groups $G = GL_N, SL_N$ and for generic quantum parameter. We obtain formulas for the dimension of the skein module of $T^3$, and we describe…
We consider two algebras of curves associated to an oriented surface of finite type - the cluster algebra from combinatorial algebra, and the skein algebra from quantum topology. We focus on generalizations of cluster algebras and…
We continue our investigation on denominator conjecture of Fomin and Zelevinsky for cluster algebras via geometric models initialed in \cite{FG22}. In this paper, we confirm the denominator conjecture for cluster algebras of finite type.…
In [F] H. Furusho proves the beautiful result that of the three defining equations for associators, the pentagon implies the two hexagons (see also [W]). In this note we present a simpler proof for this theorem (although our paper is less…
It is proved that Drinfel'd's pentagon equation implies the generalized double shuffle relation. As a corollary, an embedding from the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group $GRT_1$ into Racinet's double shuffle group $DMR_0$ is obtained, which…
We give combinatorial formulas for the Laurent expansion of any cluster variable in any cluster algebra coming from a triangulated surface (with or without punctures), with respect to an arbitrary seed. Moreover, we work in the generality…
This paper focuses linear and algebraic relations among multiple zeta values which were obtained in knot theory. It is shown that they can be derived from the associator relations, i.e. the pentagon equation and the shuffle relation.
For each skein module we describe a homology theory which, for any three manifold recovers the skein module at its zero level. The theory measures skein-like relations among skein relations, mimicking Hilbert's theory of syzygies. We work…
The notion of a symmetrically factorizable Lie group is introduced. It is shown that each symmetrically factorizable Lie group is related to a set-theoretical solution of the pentagon equation. Each simple Lie group (after a certain Abelian…
We establish a connection between knot theory and cluster algebras via representation theory. To every knot diagram (or link diagram), we associate a cluster algebra by constructing a quiver with potential. The rank of the cluster algebra…
A set-theoretic solution to the Pentagon Equation can be described as a \emph{pentagon} algebra $(S, \cdot, \ast)$ such that $(S, \cdot)$ is a semigroup and the operations $\cdot$ and $\ast$ are related by two additional equations. This…
Using the notion of compatibility between Poisson brackets and cluster structures in the coordinate rings of simple Lie groups, Gekhtman Shapiro and Vainshtein conjectured a correspondence between the two. Poisson Lie groups are classified…
This paper is on elimination of defining equations of the cyclotomic analogues, introduced by the first author, of Drinfeld's scheme of associators. We show that the mixed pentagon equation implies the octagon equation for N=2 and the…
In this paper, we apply Kauffman bracket skein algebras to develop a theory of skein adequate links in thickened surfaces. We show that any alternating link diagram on a surface is skein adequate. We apply our theory to establish the first…
We prove a new theorem of Tverberg type which confirms the conjecture of Blagojevic, Frick, and Ziegler about the existence of "balanced Tverberg partitions" (Conjecture 6.6 in, Tverberg plus constraints, Bull. London Math. Soc., 46 (2014)…
We mainly introduce an abstract pattern to study cluster algebras. Cluster algebras, generalized cluster algebras and Laurent phenomenon algebras are unified in the language of generalized Laurent phenomenon algebras (briefly, GLP algebras)…
In this paper the relationship between iterated tilted algebras and cluster-tilted algebras and relation-extensions is studied. In the Dynkin case, it is shown that the relationship is very strong and combinatorial.
