Generalised friezes and a modified Caldero-Chapoton map depending on a rigid object, II
read the original abstract
It is an important aspect of cluster theory that cluster categories are "categorifications" of cluster algebras. This is expressed formally by the (original) Caldero-Chapoton map X which sends certain objects of cluster categories to elements of cluster algebras. Let \tau c --> b --> c be an Auslander-Reiten triangle. The map X has the salient property that X(\tau c)X(c) - X(b) = 1. This is part of the definition of a so-called frieze. The construction of X depends on a cluster tilting object. In a previous paper, we introduced a modified Caldero-Chapoton map \rho depending on a rigid object; these are more general than cluster tilting objects. The map \rho sends objects of sufficiently nice triangulated categories to integers and has the key property that \rho(\tau c)\rho(c) - \rho(b) is 0 or 1. This is part of the definition of what we call a generalised frieze. Here we develop the theory further by constructing a modified Caldero-Chapoton map, still depending on a rigid object, which sends objects of sufficiently nice triangulated categories to elements of a commutative ring A. We derive conditions under which the map is a generalised frieze, and show how the conditions can be satisfied if A is a Laurent polynomial ring over the integers. The new map is a proper generalisation of the maps X and \rho.
