Abstract

In this paper we introduce the new concepts of supersymmetric and self-symmetric gaps of a numerical semigroup with two generators. Those concepts are based on certain symmetries of the gaps of the semigroup with respect to their Wilf number. We prove that the set of supersymmetric and self-symmetric gaps completely determines the semigroup and we compare this set with the fundamental gaps of the semigroup.
