Title: Cluster algebra structures on Poisson nilpotent algebras
Various coordinate rings of varieties appearing in the theory of Poisson Lie groups and Poisson homogeneous spaces belong to the large, axiomatically defined class of symmetric Poisson nilpotent algebras, e.g. coordinate rings of Schubert cells for symmetrizable Kac–Moody groups, affine charts of Bott-Samelson varieties, coordinate rings of double Bruhat cells (in the last case after a localization). We prove that every symmetric Poisson nilpotent algebra satisfying a mild condition on certain scalars is canonically isomorphic to a cluster algebra which coincides with the corresponding upper cluster algebra, without additional localizations by frozen variables. The constructed cluster structure is compatible with the Poisson structure in the sense of Gekhtman, Shapiro and Vainshtein. All Poisson nilpotent algebras are proved to be equivariant Poisson Unique Factorization Domains. Their seeds are constructed from sequences of Poisson-prime elements for chains of Poisson UFDs; mutation matrices are effectively determined from linear systems in terms of the underlying Poisson structure. Uniqueness, existence, mutation, and other properties are established for these sequences of Poisson-prime elements.  more » « less

    We show the existence of cluster A \mathcal {A} -structures and cluster Poisson structures on any braid variety, for any simple Lie group. The construction is achieved via weave calculus and a tropicalization of Lusztig’s coordinates. Several explicit seeds are provided and the quiver and cluster variables are readily computable. We prove that these upper cluster algebras equal their cluster algebras, show local acyclicity, and explicitly determine their DT-transformations as the twist automorphisms of braid varieties. The main result also resolves the conjecture of B. Leclerc [Adv. Math. 300 (2016), pp. 190–228] on the existence of cluster algebra structures on the coordinate rings of open Richardson varieties.

    We study the realization of acyclic cluster algebras as coordinate rings of Coxeter double Bruhat cells in Kac–Moody groups. We prove that all cluster monomials with $$\mathbf{g}$$ -vector lying in the doubled Cambrian fan are restrictions of principal generalized minors. As a corollary, cluster algebras of finite and affine type admit a complete and non-recursive description via (ind-)algebraic group representations, in a way similar in spirit to the Caldero–Chapoton description via quiver representations. In type $$A_{1}^{(1)}$$ , we further show that elements of several canonical bases (generic, triangular, and theta) which complete the partial basis of cluster monomials are composed entirely of restrictions of minors. The discrepancy among these bases is accounted for by continuous parameters appearing in the classification of irreducible level-zero representations of affine Lie groups. We discuss how our results illuminate certain parallels between the classification of representations of finite-dimensional algebras and of integrable weight representations of Kac–Moody algebras.

    We study fixed-point loci of Nakajima varieties under symplectomorphisms and their antisymplectic cousins, which are compositions of a diagram isomorphism, a reflection functor, and a transpose defined by certain bilinear forms. These subvarieties provide a natural home for geometric representation theory of symmetric pairs. In particular, the cohomology of a Steinberg-type variety of the symplectic fixed-point subvarieties is conjecturally related to the universal enveloping algebra of the subalgebra in a symmetric pair. The latter symplectic subvarieties are further used to geometrically construct an action of a twisted Yangian on a torus equivariant cohomology of Nakajima varieties. In the type A case, these subvarieties provide a quiver model for partial Springer resolutions of nilpotent Slodowy slices of classical groups and associated symmetric spaces, which leads to a rectangular symmetry and a refinement of Kraft-Procesi row/column removal reductions.

    Abstract We describe a connection between the subjects of cluster algebras, polynomial identity algebras, and discriminants. For this, we define the notion of root of unity quantum cluster algebras and prove that they are polynomial identity algebras. Inside each such algebra we construct a (large) canonical central subalgebra, which can be viewed as a far reaching generalization of the central subalgebras of big quantum groups constructed by De Concini, Kac, and Procesi and used in representation theory. Each such central subalgebra is proved to be isomorphic to the underlying classical cluster algebra of geometric type. When the root of unity quantum cluster algebra is free over its central subalgebra, we prove that the discriminant of the pair is a product of powers of the frozen variables times an integer. An extension of this result is also proved for the discriminants of all subalgebras generated by the cluster variables of nerves in the exchange graph. These results can be used for the effective computation of discriminants. As an application we obtain an explicit formula for the discriminant of the integral form over of each quantum unipotent cell of De Concini, Kac, and Procesi for arbitrary symmetrizable Kac–Moody algebras, where is a root of unity.

    We study modules over the commutative ring spectrum 𝐻𝔽₂∧𝐻𝔽₂, whose coefficient groups are quotients of the dual Steenrod algebra by collections of the Milnor generators. We show that very few of these quotients admit algebra structures, but those that do can be constructed simply: killing a generator ξ_{k} in the category of associative algebras freely kills the higher generators ξ_{k+n}. Using new information about the conjugation operation in the dual Steenrod algebra, we also consider quotients by families of Milnor generators and their conjugates. This allows us to produce a family of associative 𝐻𝔽₂∧𝐻𝔽₂-algebras whose coefficient rings are finite-dimensional and exhibit unexpected duality features. We then use these algebras to give detailed computations of the homotopy groups of several modules over this ring spectrum.
