Two Formulas for $F$-Polynomials

Abstract

We discuss a product formula for $F$-polynomials in cluster algebras, and provide two proofs. One proof is inductive and uses only the mutation rule for $F$-polynomials. The other is based on the Fock-Goncharov decomposition of mutations. We conclude by expanding this product formula as a sum and illustrate applications. This expansion provides an explicit combinatorial computation of $F$-polynomials in a given seed that depends only on the $\mathbf{c}$-vectors and $\mathbf{g}$-vectors along a finite sequence of mutations from the initial seed to the given seed.
