Quasi-homomorphisms of quantum cluster algebras

In this paper, we study quasi-homomorphisms of quantum cluster algebras, which are quantum analogy of quasi-homomorphisms of cluster algebras introduced by Fraser. For a quantum Grassmannian cluster algebra $\mathbb{C}_q[{\rm Gr}(k,n)]$, we show that there is an associated braid group and each generator $\sigma_i$ of the braid group preserves the quasi-commutative relations of quantum Pl\"{u}cker coordinates and exchange relations of the quantum Grassmannian cluster algebra. We conjecture that $\sigma_i$ also preserves $r$-term ($r \ge 4$) quantum Pl\"{u}cker relations of $\mathbb{C}_q[{\rm Gr}(k,n)]$ and other relations which cannot be derived from quantum quantum Pl\"{u}cker relations (if any). Up to this conjecture, we show that $\sigma_i$ is a quasi-automorphism of $\mathbb{C}_q[{\rm Gr}(k,n)]$ and the braid group acts on $\mathbb{C}_q[{\rm Gr}(k,n)]$.
