The linear-independence conjecture for cluster monomials

Let A\mathcal{A} be a cluster algebra over ground ring ZP\mathbb{Z}\mathbb{P}. A cluster monomial is a monomial in cluster variables belonging to one cluster. Cluster-monomial linear-independence conjecture. Cluster monomials in any cluster algebra are linearly independent over the ground ring. This is a basic structural conjecture for cluster algebras. It is proved for cluster algebras of finite type, while the general case remains open.

  1. Linear independence conjecture for cluster monomials

    Let A\mathcal{A} be a cluster algebra. A cluster monomial is a monomial in cluster variables, all of which belong to the same cluster. Cluster-monomial linear independence conjecture. The cluster monomials are linearly independent. The conjecture is known for cluster algebras defined by quivers, but the source does not establish it in general.
