Minimal affinizations introduced by Chari form a class of modules of quantum affine algebras. We introduce in this paper a system of equations satisfied by the q-characters of minimal affinizations of type G2, which we call the M-system of type G2. The M-system of type G2 contains all minimal affinizations of type G2 and only contains minimal affinizations. The equations in the M-system of type G2 are three-term recurrence relations. The M-system of type G2 is much simpler than the extended T-system of type G2 obtained by Mukhin and the second author. We also interpret the three-term recurrence relations in the M-system of type G2 as exchange relations in a cluster algebra constructed by Hernandez and Leclerc.
Keywords: Quantum affine algebras of type G-2, minimal affinizations, q-characters, Frenkel-Mukhin algorithm, M-systems, cluster algebras.
