Properties of minimal mutation-infinite quivers

Abstract

We study properties of minimal mutation-infinite quivers. In particular we show that every minimal mutation-infinite quiver of at least rank 4 is Louise and has a maximal green sequence. It then follows that the cluster algebras generated by these quivers are locally acyclic and hence equal to their upper cluster algebra. We also study which quivers in a mutation-class have a maximal green sequence. For any rank 3 quiver there are at most 6 quivers in its mutation class that admit a maximal green sequence. We also show that for every rank 4 minimal mutation-infinite quiver there is a finite connected subgraph of the unlabelled exchange graph consisting of quivers that admit a maximal green sequence.
