Abstract

Several recent papers have examined a rational polyhedron PmP_m whose integer points are in bijection with the numerical semigroups (cofinite, additively closed subsets of the non-negative integers) containing mm. A combinatorial description of the faces of PmP_m was recently introduced, one that can be obtained from the divisibility posets of the numerical semigroups a given face contains. In this paper, we study the faces of PmP_m containing arithmetical numerical semigroups and those containing certain glued numerical semigroups, as an initial step towards better understanding the full face structure of PmP_m. In most cases, such faces only contain semigroups from these families, yielding a tight connection to the geometry of PmP_m.
