Abstract

Given a numerical semigroup SS and a positive integer pp, the quotient Sp={xNpxS}\frac{S}{p}=\{x\in \mathbb{N} \mid px\in S\} also forms a numerical semigroup. In this paper, we first characterize the Ap\'ery set for a class of quotients of numerical semigroups. Under certain conditions, we then derive half-closed form formulas for their Frobenius number and genus. Furthermore, for specific values of part parameters, we obtain explicit formulas for the Frobenius number of certain quotients of numerical semigroups.
