Donaldson-Thomas Transformation of Grassmannian (1603.00972v4)

Abstract: Kontsevich and Soibelman defined the notion of Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a 3d Calabi-Yau category with a stability condition. A family of examples of such categories can be constructed from an arbitrary cluster variety. The corresponding Donaldson-Thomas invariants are encoded by a special formal automorphism of the cluster variety, known as Donaldson-Thomas transformation. Fix two integers $m$ and $n$ with $1<m<m+1<n$. It is known that the configuration space $\mathrm{Conf}_n(\mathbb{P}^{m-1})$, closely related to Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}_m(n)$, is a cluster Poisson variety. In this paper we determine the Donaldson-Thomas transformation of $\mathrm{Conf}_n(\mathbb{P}^{m-1})$ as an explicitly defined birational automorphism of $\mathrm{Conf}_n(\mathbb{P}^{m-1})$. Its variant acts on the Grassmannian by a birational automorphism.
