Laurent phenomenon algebras arising from surfaces II: Laminated surfaces (1802.06962v1)

Abstract: It was shown by Fock, Goncharov and Fomin, Shapiro, Thurston that some cluster algebras arise from triangulated orientable suraces. Subsequently Dupont and Palesi generalised this construction to include unpunctured non-orientable surfaces, giving birth to quasi-cluster algebras. Previously we linked this framework to Lam and Pylyavskyy's Laurent phenomenon algebras, showing that unpunctured surfaces admit an LP structure. In this paper we extend quasi-cluster algebras to include punctured surfaces. Moreover, by adding laminations to the surface we demonstrate that all punctured and unpunctured surfaces admit LP structures.
