Cluster algebras and the amplituhedron - definition

By Lauren K. Williams

Appears in collection : Current trends in representation theory, cluster algebras and geometry / Théorie des représentations, algèbres amassées et géométrie

I will give an introduction to the amplituhedron, a geometric object generalizing the positive Grassmannian, which was introduced by Arkani-Hamed and Trnka in the context of scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang Mills theory. I will focus in particular on its connections to cluster algebras, including the cluster adjacency conjecture. (Based on joint works with multiple coauthors, especially Evan-Zohar, Lakrec, Parisi, Sherman-Bennett, and Tessler.)
