Factorization length distribution for affine semigroups V: explicit asymptotic behavior of weighted factorization lengths on numerical semigroups

Combinatorics 2025-04-08 v3 Number Theory

Abstract

We describe the asymptotic behavior of weighted factorization lengths on numerical semigroups. Our approach is geometric as opposed to analytic, explains the presence of Curry-Schoenberg B-splines as limiting distributions, and provides explicit error bounds (no implied constants left unspecified). Along the way, we explicitly bound the difference between the vector partition function and the number of integer points in the variable polytope for a 2×k2 \times k matrix.
