Soit $\Lambda$ une algèbre préprojective de type $A,D,E$, et soit $G$ le groupe algébrique complexe semi-simple et simplement connexe correspondant. Nous étudions les modules rigides des sous-catégories $\mathrm{Sub}Q$ où $Q$ désigne un $\Lambda$-module injectif, et nous introduisons une opération de mutation sur les modules rigides complets de $\mathrm{Sub}Q$. Ceci conduit à des structures d’algèbre amassée sur les anneaux de coordonnées des variétés de drapeaux partiels associées à $G$.

Let $\Lambda$ be a preprojective algebra of type $A,D,E$, and let $G$ be the corresponding semisimple simply connected complex algebraic group. We study rigid modules in subcategories $\mathrm{Sub}Q$ for $Q$ an injective $\Lambda$-module, and we introduce a mutation operation between complete rigid modules in $\mathrm{Sub}Q$. This yields cluster algebra structures on the coordinate rings of the partial flag varieties attached to $G$.
