Cluster Configuration Spaces of Finite Type

Description
Summary:For each Dynkin diagram , we define a ''cluster configuration space'' ℳ and a partial compactification ℳ˜. For = ₙ₋₃, we have ℳₙ₋₃ = ℳ₀,ₙ, the configuration space of points on ℙ¹, and the partial compactification ℳ˜ₙ₋₃ was studied in this case by Brown. The space M˜ is a smooth affine algebraic variety with a stratification in bijection with the faces of the Chapoton-Fomin-Zelevinsky generalized associahedron. The regular functions on ℳ˜ are generated by coordinates uγ, in bijection with the cluster variables of type , and the relations are described completely in terms of the compatibility degree function of the cluster algebra. As an application, we define and study cluster algebra analogues of tree-level open string amplitudes.
