A quantum cluster algebra is a certain noncommutative deformation of a cluster algebra. In this paper, we define and prove the existence of analogous quantum F-polynomials for quantum cluster algebras. We prove some properties of quantum F-polynomials. In particular, we give a recurrence relation which can be used to compute them. Finally, we compute quantum F-polynomials and g-vectors for a certain class of cluster variables, which includes all cluster variables in type A quantum cluster algebras.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-04-21T17:05:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16S99", "05E15", "20G42" ], "keywords": [ "quantum cluster algebra", "expresses cluster variables", "initial cluster data", "analogous quantum f-polynomials", "recurrence relation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0904.3291T" } } }
