Abstract
A numerical semigroup is a cofinite subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition and contains 0. Each numerical semigroup with fixed smallest positive element corresponds to an integer point in a rational polyhedral cone , called the Kunz cone. Moreover, numerical semigroups corresponding to points in the same face are known to share many properties, such as the number of minimal generators. In this work, we classify which faces of contain points corresponding to numerical semigroups. Additionally, we obtain sharp bounds on the number of minimal generators of in terms of the dimension of the face of containing the point corresponding to .
