Abstract

We prove quantum Laurent positivity for mutation-acyclic skew-symmetrizable cluster algebras of arbitrary finite rank.

Provenance statement

It took about half a month to obtain the above paper. During this period, I alternated between conversing with GPT-6-Astra and using the Danus system to tackle difficult problems. I provided it with a large number of papers for reference, such as Schiffler's paper on Laurent positivity, Davison's paper on positivity in quantum cluster algebras, and so on.
