Abstract
We define the notion of a mutation invariant function on a cluster ensemble with respect to a group action of the cluster modular group on its associated function fields. We realize many examples of previously studied functions as elements of this type of invariant ring and give many new examples. We show that these invariants have geometric and number theoretic interpretations, and classify them for ensembles associated to affine Dynkin diagrams. The primary tool used in this classification is the relationship between cluster algebras and the Teichmüller theory of surfaces.
