Abstract

The augmentation of the Markov cluster algebra is explicit but not inducible as a rooted cluster morphism. This answers a question of Chang and Zhu negatively.

Provenance statement

ChatGPT was used to develop the counterexample and its proof. Codex was used to check the arguments, search the literature, and prepare the manuscript.
