Abstract
Given coprime positive integers , the Frobenius number is the largest integer not representable as a linear combination of with non-negative integer coefficients. Let denote the number of all representable non-negative integers less than ; Wilf conjectured that . We provide bounds for and for the type of the numerical semigroup in function of and , and use these bounds to prove that , where , and . Finally, we give an alternative, simpler proof for the Wilf conjecture if the numerical semigroup is almost-symmetric.
