Monoidal categorification conjecture for quantum cluster algebras of double Bott–Samelson cells

Let CC be the Cartan matrix under consideration, let ft˙\dot{\mathbf f t} denote the seeds associated with double Bott–Samelson cells, and let U(ft˙)\overline{\mathcal{U}}(\dot{\mathbf f t}) be the associated quantum cluster algebra with common triangular basis L{{\mathbf L}}.

Monoidal categorification conjecture. If CC is symmetric, the pair

(U(ft˙),L)\bigl(\overline{\mathcal{U}}(\dot{\mathbf f t}),{{\mathbf L}}\bigr)

admits a monoidal categorification.

A monoidal categorification would explain the cluster algebra and its distinguished basis through a monoidal category, extending the representation-theoretic structures associated with quantum groups. The source does not provide a resolution of this conjecture.
