Positivity for graph Laurent phenomenon algebras
Abstract
Laurent phenomenon algebras were introduced by Lam and Pylyavskyy as a generalisation of cluster algebras. For a family associated with directed graphs, they showed that every cluster variable is a Laurent polynomial in the variables of any cluster and conjectured that these expansions have nonnegative coefficients. We prove this conjecture for all directed graphs without loops or multiple edges with respect to an arbitrary seed cluster.
