Log-concavity of cluster algebras of type $A_n$

Abstract

Okounkov [Oko03] conjectured the log-concavity about the structure constants for many interesting basis from representation theory. For the cluster algebra, Gross, Hacking, Keel, Kontsevich [GHKK18] introduced the atomic theta basis. We prove that the coefficients of the exponents of any cluster variable of type $A_n$ are log-concave. We show that the structure constants for theta basis of type $A_2$ are log-concave. As for larger generality, we conjecture that the log-concavity of the structure constants for theta basis of the cluster algebra.
