Abstract

In Caldero and Keller (Invent Math 172:169–211, 2008) and Sherman and Zelevinsky (Mosc Math J 4(4):947–974, 2004), the authors constructed the bases of cluster algebras of finite types and of type \(\widetilde{A}_{1,1}\), respectively. In this paper, we will deduce ℤ-bases for cluster algebras of affine types.
