Stasheff polytopes and the coordinate ring of the cluster \(\mathcal X\)-variety of type \(A_n\). (English) Zbl 1296.05210

Summary: We define Stasheff polytopes in the spaces of tropical points of cluster \(\mathcal A\)-varieties. We study the supports of products of elements of canonical bases for cluster \(\mathcal X\)-varieties. We prove that, for the cluster \(\mathcal X\)-variety of type \(A_n\), such supports are Stasheff polytopes.
