Fomin–Zelevinsky's conjectures on cluster algebras
Let be the -regular tree indexing seeds, let be an exchange matrix at a base vertex , and let and denote the associated -polynomials and -vectors. For adjacent vertices and related by mutation in direction , write .
Fomin–Zelevinsky's conjectures. The following statements hold:
(i) Each polynomial has constant term .
(ii) Each polynomial has a unique monomial of maximal degree; this monomial has coefficient and is divisible by all the other occurring monomials.
(iii) For every , the vectors are sign-coherent: for each , their th components are either all nonnegative or all nonpositive.
(iv) For every , the vectors form a -basis of the lattice .
(v) For any and , if and , then
These are the conjectures reproduced from earlier work and concern the constant terms and maximal monomials of -polynomials, sign-coherence and basis properties of -vectors, and their mutation rule. In the source they are presented in a section explaining consequences of sign-coherence and matrix identities; the supplied text does not establish their resolution, so their status is left open.
