Compatible cluster structures for Belavin–Drinfeld classes

Let G{\mathcal G} be a simple complex Lie group. For any Belavin–Drinfeld triple T=(Γ1,Γ2,γ)T=(\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2,\gamma), let kT=ΔΓ1k_T=|\Delta\setminus\Gamma_1|, let HT=exphTG\mathcal H_T=\exp\mathfrak h_T\subset {\mathcal G} be the associated torus, and let a Sklyanin bracket mean the Poisson–Lie bracket corresponding to a solution of the classical Yang–Baxter equation. A cluster structure (CT,φT)({\mathcal C}_T,\varphi_T) has stable variables and an extended exchange matrix, and its upper cluster algebra is denoted AC(CT)\overline{{\mathcal A}}_{\mathbb C}({\mathcal C}_T).

Belavin–Drinfeld cluster-structure conjecture. For any Belavin–Drinfeld triple T=(Γ1,Γ2,γ)T=(\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2,\gamma) there exists a cluster structure (CT,φT)({\mathcal C}_T,\varphi_T) on G{\mathcal G} such that:

  1. the number of stable variables is 2kT2k_T, and the corresponding extended exchange matrix has full rank;
  2. (CT,φT)({\mathcal C}_T,\varphi_T) is regular, and AC(CT)\overline{{\mathcal A}}_{\mathbb C}({\mathcal C}_T) is naturally isomorphic to O(G){\mathcal O}({\mathcal G});
  3. the global toric action of (C)2kT(\mathbb C^*)^{2k_T} on C(G)\mathbb C({\mathcal G}) is generated by the action of HT×HT\mathcal H_T\times\mathcal H_T given by (H1,H2)(X)=H1XH2(H_1,H_2)(X)=H_1XH_2;
  4. for any solution of the classical Yang–Baxter equation in the Belavin–Drinfeld class specified by TT, the corresponding Sklyanin bracket is compatible with CT{\mathcal C}_T; and
  5. a Poisson–Lie bracket on G{\mathcal G} is compatible with CT{\mathcal C}_T only if it is a scalar multiple of the Sklyanin bracket associated with a solution in the Belavin–Drinfeld class specified by TT.

This precise conjecture refines the proposed parallel classification by assigning a regular cluster structure to each Belavin–Drinfeld triple and characterizing the compatible Poisson–Lie brackets. Its conclusions connect the upper cluster algebra with the coordinate ring of G{\mathcal G} and relate cluster toric actions to the tori determined by the triple.
