Frobenius built a representation theory of finite groups in the process of obtaining the irreducible factorization of the group determinant. Here, we give a generalization of Frobenius' theorem. The generalization leads to a corollary on…
An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose derived group (commutator subgroup) is isomorphic to $G$. This paper discusses integrals of groups, and in particular questions about which groups have integrals and how big or small those…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between numerical semigroups of genus $g$ and almost symmetric numerical semigroups with Frobenius number $F$ and type $F-2g$, provided that $F$ is greater than $4g-1$.
For a variety $X$ of positive characteristic and a non-negative integer $e$, we define its $e$-th F-blowup to be the universal flattening of the $e$-iterated Frobenius of $X$. Thus we have the sequence (a set labeled by non-negative…
We introduce the notion of the \textit{principal element} of a Frobenius Lie algebra $\f$. The principal element corresponds to a choice of $F\in \f^*$ such that $F[-,-]$ non-degenerate. In many natural instances, the principal element is…
A numerical semigroup $S$ is a cofinite, additively-closed subset of the nonnegative integers that contains $0$. In this paper, we initiate the study of atomic density, an asymptotic measure of the proportion of irreducible elements in a…
Frobenius' Theorem states that the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb H$ is, besides the fields of real and complex numbers, the only finite-dimensional real division algebra. We first give a short elementary proof of this theorem, then…
Wilf Conjecture on numerical semigroups is an inequality connecting the Frobenius number, embedding dimension and the genus of the semigroup. The conjecture is still open in general. We prove that the Wilf inequality is preserved under…
Let $S$ be a numerical semigroup and let $\left(\mathbb{Z},\leqslant\_S\right)$ be the (locally finite) poset induced by $S$ on the set of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ defined by $x \leqslant\_S y$ if and only if $y-x\in S$ for all integers $x$…
We give a simple explanation of numerical experiments of V. Arnold with two sequences of symmetric numerical semigroups, S(4,6+4k,87-4k) and S(9,3+9k,85-9k) generated by three elements. We present a generalization of these sequences by…
In this paper we are interested in the following problem. Let $p$ be a prime number, $S\subset \F_p$ and $\cP\subset \{P\in\F_p [X]:\deg P\le d\}$. What is the largest integer $k$ such that for all subsets $\cA, \cB$ of $\F_p$ satisfying…
We associate a graded monoidal supercategory $\mathcal{H}\mathit{eis}_{F,k}$ to every graded Frobenius superalgebra $F$ and integer $k$. These categories, which categorify a broad range of lattice Heisenberg algebras, recover many…
We define a reflective numerical semigroup of genus $g$ as a numerical semigroup that has a certain reflective symmetry when viewed within $\mathbb{Z}$ as an array with $g$ columns. Equivalently, a reflective numerical semigroup has one gap…
In this paper we present a new approach to construct the set of numerical semigroups with a fixed genus. Our methodology is based on the construction of the set of numerical semigroups with fixed Frobenius number and genus. An equivalence…
The `spider theorem' for a general Frobenius algebra $A$, classifies all maps $A^{\otimes m}\to A^{\otimes n}$ that are built from the operations and, in a graphical representation, represented by a {\it connected} diagram. Here the algebra…
For any numerical semigroup $S$, there are infinitely many numerical symmetric semigroups $T$ such that $S=\frac{T}{2}$ is their half. We are studying the Betti numbers of the numerical semigroup ring $K[T]$ when $S$ is a 3-generated…
A semidomain is a subsemiring of an integral domain. We call a semidomain $S$ additively reduced if $0$ is the only invertible element of the monoid $(S, +)$, while we say that $S$ is additively Furstenberg if every non-invertible element…
Let $f_1(n), \ldots, f_k(n)$ be polynomial functions of $n$. For fixed $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $S_n\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ be the numerical semigroup generated by $f_1(n),\ldots,f_k(n)$. As $n$ varies, we show that many invariants of $S_n$ are…
Let $p$ be a prime number, and let $S$ be the numerical semigroup generated by the prime numbers not less than $p$. We compare the orders of magnitude of some invariants of $S$ with each other, e. g., the biggest atom $u$ of $S$ with $p$…
The change-making problem was recently extended to sets of positive integers not containing the element $1$, and from there to numerical semigroups. A greedy numerical semigroup is defined as a numerical semigroup where the greedy…
