Abstract: Algebra, Geometry and Combinatorics are closely linked. Starting from classical theorems by Pythagoras and Ptolemy we will discuss the combinatorics of triangulations of surfaces. This yields a beautiful approach to cluster algebras, a young and thriving research area with links to various fields in Mathematics. Of particular interest are approaches to Grassmannian Cluster algebras with their impact on representation theory.
