Abstract
Gross, Hacking, and Keel have shown that, in the absence of frozen indices, a cluster \(\mathcal {A}\)-variety with generic coefficients is the universal torsor of the corresponding cluster \(\mathcal {X}\)-variety with corresponding coefficients. We extend this to allow for (partial) compactifications of the \(\mathcal {A}\)- and \(\mathcal {X}\)-spaces, using frozen vectors to capture the data of the boundary divisors. This works even without assuming that the exchange matrix is skew-symmetrizable. When certain assumptions are satisfied, we conclude that the theta bases on the \(\mathcal {A}\)-space yield additive bases of global sections for every line bundle on the leaves of the partially compactified \(\mathcal {X}\)-space.
