This is a preliminary draft of Chapters 1-3 of our forthcoming textbook "Introduction to Cluster Algebras." This installment contains: Chapter 1. Total positivity Chapter 2. Mutations of quivers and matrices Chapter 3. Clusters and seeds

We initiate a study of the dependence of the choice of ground ring on the problem on whether a cluster algebra is equal to its upper cluster algebra. A condition for when there is equality of the
Motivated by Conway and Coxeter's combinatorial results concerning frieze patterns, we sketch an introduction to the theory of cluster algebras and cluster categories for acyclic quivers. The goal is

We describe and investigate a connection between the topology of isolated singularities of plane curves and the mutation equivalence, in the sense of cluster algebra theory, of the quivers associated
Abstract We consider frieze sequences corresponding to sequences of cluster mutations for affine D- and E-type quivers. We show that the cluster variables satisfy linear recurrences with periodic

We study cluster adjacency conjectures for amplitudes in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We show that the n-point one-loop NMHV ratio function satisfies Steinmann cluster adjacency. We
We compute the number of $\mathcal{X}$-variables (also called coefficients) of a cluster algebra of finite type when the underlying semifield is the universal semifield. For classical types, these

This is a brief and informal introduction to cluster algebras. It roughly follows the historical path of their discovery, made jointly with A.Zelevinsky. Total positivity serves as the main
