Abstract
We present a complete solution of T-systems using positive flat connections, and obtain simple derivations of periodicity and positivity properties. We also present an inhomogeneous generalization of the Robbins-Rumsey Lambda-determinant corresponding to the T-system cluster algebra with coefficients, and a new formula involving alternating sign matrices.
