Categorified Cluster Structures on Coulomb Branches of Certain Star-Shaped Quivers
Abstract
We study the quantized K-theoretic Coulomb branches of framed star-shaped quivers with central gauge dimension n≥2, r−1 one-dimensional outer gauge vertices, and a one-dimensional framing at the central vertex. For n=2 and arbitrary r≥1, and for every n≥2 with 1≤ r≤5, we prove that the loop-graded Koszul-perverse heart is a monoidal categorification of the associated quantum cluster algebra over ℤ[v±1]. This quantum cluster algebra coincides with its upper quantum cluster algebra. For all n≥2 and r≥1, we construct an explicit initial seed and identify the associated upper quantum cluster algebra with the Grothendieck ring of this heart. Every mutation is realized by a short exact sequence, and every quantum cluster monomial is represented by a simple object.
