Monoidal Categorifications of Cluster Algebras of Type A and D

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics ((PROMS,volume 40))

Abstract

In this note, we introduce monoidal subcategories of the tensor category of finite-dimensional representations of a simply-laced quantum affine algebra, parametrized by arbitrary Dynkin quivers. For linearly oriented quivers of types A and D, we show that these categories provide monoidal categorifications of cluster algebras of the same type. The proof is purely representation-theoretical, in the spirit of Hernandez and Leclerc (Duke Math. J. 154, 265–341, 2010).
