From frieze patterns to cluster categories

Matthew Pressland

Published 2020-10-27Version 1

Motivated by Conway and Coxeter's combinatorial results concerning frieze patterns, we sketch an introduction to the theory of cluster algebras and cluster categories for acyclic quivers. The goal is to show how these more abstract theories provide a conceptual explanation for phenomena concerning friezes, principally integrality and periodicity.
