Theta bases and log Gromov-Witten invariants of cluster varieties

Let $S$ be a surface, $G$ a simply connected classical group, and $G^{\prime }$ the associated adjoint form of the group. We show that the moduli spaces of framed local systems ${\mathcal{X}}_{G^{\prime },S}$ and ${\mathcal{A}}_{G,S}$, which were constructed by Fock and Goncharov [‘Moduli spaces of local systems and higher Teichmuller theory’, Publ. Math. Inst. Hautes Études Sci.103 (2006), 1–212], have the structure of cluster varieties, and thus together form a cluster ensemble. This simplifies some of the proofs in that paper, and also allows one to quantize higher Teichmuller space, which was previously only possible when $G$ was of type $A$.

Natural Way

We introduce the notion of a $Y$-pattern with coefficients and its geometric counterpart: an $\mathcal {X}$-cluster variety with coefficients. We use these constructions to build a flat degeneration of every skew-symmetrizable specially completed $\mathcal {X}$-cluster variety $\widehat {\mathcal {X} }$ to the toric variety associated to its g-fan. Moreover, we show that the fibers of this family are stratified in a natural way, with strata the specially completed $\mathcal {X}$-varieties encoded by $\operatorname {Star}(\tau )$ for each cone $\tau$ of the $\mathbf {g}$-fan. These strata degenerate to the associated toric strata of the central fiber. We further show that the family is cluster dual to $\mathcal {A}_{\mathrm {prin}}$ of Gross, Hacking, Keel and Kontsevich [Canonical bases for cluster algebras, J. Amer. Math. Soc. 31 (2018), 497–608], and the fibers cluster dual to $\mathcal {A} _t$. Finally, we give two applications. First, we use our construction to identify the toric degeneration of Grassmannians from Rietsch and Williams [Newton-Okounkov bodies, cluster duality, and mirror symmetry for Grassmannians, Duke Math. J. 168 (2019), 3437–3527] with the Gross–Hacking–Keel–Kontsevich degeneration in the case of $\operatorname {Gr}_2(\mathbb {C} ^{5})$. Next, we use it to link cluster duality to Batyrev–Borisov duality of Gorenstein toric Fanos in the context of mirror symmetry.

Cluster Varieties

AbstractWe study threefolds Y fibred by $$A_m$$ A m -surfaces over a curve S of positive genus. An ideal triangulation of S defines, for each rank m, a quiver $$Q(\Delta _m)$$ Q ( Δ m ) , hence a $$CY_3$$ C Y 3 -category $$\mathcal {C}(W)$$ C ( W ) for any potential W on $$Q(\Delta _m)$$ Q ( Δ m ) . We show that for $$\omega $$ ω in an open subset of the Kähler cone, a subcategory of a sign-twisted Fukaya category of $$(Y,\omega )$$ ( Y , ω ) is quasi-isomorphic to $$(\mathcal {C},W_{[\omega ]})$$ ( C , W [ ω ] ) for a certain generic potential $$W_{[\omega ]}$$ W [ ω ] . This partially establishes a conjecture of Goncharov (in: Algebra, geometry, and physics in the 21st century, Birkhäuser/Springer, Cham, 2017) concerning ‘categorifications’ of cluster varieties of framed $${\mathbb {P}}GL_{m+1}$$ P G L m + 1 -local systems on S, and gives a symplectic geometric viewpoint on results of Gaiotto et al. (Ann Henri Poincaré 15(1):61–141, 2014) on ‘theories of class $${\mathcal {S}}$$ S ’.

Simply Connected

Abstract Let $S$ be a surface, $G$ a simply-connected semi-simple group, and $G'$ the associated adjoint form of the group. In Fock and Goncharov [4], the authors show that the moduli spaces of framed local systems $\mathcal{X}_{G',S}$ and $\mathcal{A}_{G,S}$ have the structure of cluster varieties when $G$ had type $A$. This was extended to classical groups in Le [12]. In this article, we give a method for constructing the cluster structure for general reductive groups $G$. The method depends on being able to carry out some explicit computations, and depends on some mild hypotheses, which we state, and which we believe hold in general. These hypotheses hold when $G$ has type $G_2,$ and therefore we are able to construct the cluster structure in this case. We also illustrate our approach by rederiving the cluster structure for $G$ of type $A$. Our goals are to give some heuristics for the approach taken in Le [12], point out the difficulties that arise for more general groups, and to record some useful calculations. Forthcoming work by Goncharov and Shen gives a different approach to constructing the cluster structure on $\mathcal{X}_{G',S}$ and $\mathcal{A}_{G,S}$. We hope that some of the ideas here complement their more comprehensive work.
