2-frieze patterns and the cluster structure of the space of polygons
[Espace des 2-frises, espace de polygones et structure de variété amassée]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 62 (2012) no. 3, pp. 937-987.

Nous étudions une variante des frises de Coxeter-Conway appelée 2-frises. La réalisation géométrique de l’espace des 2-frises est l’espace des modules de polygones, dans le plan projectif ou dans l’espace vectoriel de dimension 3, qui est un analogue de l’espace des modules des courbes de genre 0 avec n points marqués. Nous montrons que l’espace des 2-frises admet une structure de variété amassée et nous en étudions les propriétés algébriques et arithmétiques.

We study 2-frieze patterns generalizing that of the classical Coxeter-Conway frieze patterns. The geometric realization of this space is the space of n-gons (in the projective plane and in 3-dimensional vector space) which is a close relative of the moduli space of genus 0 curves with n marked points. We show that the space of 2-frieze patterns is a cluster manifold and study its algebraic and arithmetic properties.
