An introduction to cluster algebras II

Abstract: Cluster algebras are commutative algebras equipped with remarkable combinatorial structures. Since its inception in 2000, the theory of cluster algebras has found numerous exciting applications in mathematics and physics. This series of lectures aim to provide an accessible introduction to cluster algebras for a general mathematical audience. In particular, we will investigate the following topics.

Lecture 2: Cluster algebras and Finite type classifications$\newline$ We begin with a rigorous definition of cluster algebras in terms of quiver mutations. We present a classification of cluster algebras of finite types by ADE quivers and explain their connections to generalized associahedra.
