    Abstract

    We try to give a cluster-algebraic interpretation of the complex volume of knots. We construct the R–operator from cluster mutations, and show that it can be regarded as a hyperbolic octahedron. The cluster variables are interpreted as the edge parameters used by Zickert for computing complex volume.
