In this work we present a new class of numerical semigroups called GSI-semigroups. We see the relations between them and others families of semigroups and we give explicitly their set of gaps. Moreover, an algorithm to obtain all the…

We introduce the notion of numerical semigroups generated by concatenation of arithmetic sequences and show that this class of numerical semigroups exhibit multiple interesting behaviours.

A numerical semigroup is a co-finite submonoid of the monoid of non-negative integers under addition. Many properties of numerical semigroups rely on some fundamental invariants, such as, among others, the set of gaps (and its cardinality),…

We define the concentration of a numerical semigroup $S$ as $\mathsf{C}(S)=\max \left\{\text{next}_S(s)-s ~|~ s\in S \backslash \{0\}\right\}$ wherein $\text{next}_S(s)=\min\left\{x \in S ~|~ s<x\right\}$. In this paper, we study the class…

The use of compositions simplifies some aspects of the theory of numerical semigroups. We illustrate this by giving a new proof for the asymptotic number C((1 + $\sqrt$ 5)/2) g of numerical semigroups of genus g and by describing the…

A numerical semigroup is a submonoid of $\mathbb N$ with finite complement in $\mathbb N$. A generalized numerical semigroup is a submonoid of $\mathbb{N}^{d}$ with finite complement in $\mathbb{N}^{d}$. In the context of numerical…

This paper presents a new methodology to count the number of numerical semigroups of given genus or Frobenius number. We apply generating function tools to the bounded polyhedron that classifies the semigroups with given genus (or Frobenius…

We provide algorithms for performing computations in generalized numerical semigroups, that is, submonoids of $\mathbb{N}^{d}$ with finite complement in $\mathbb{N}^{d}$. These semigroups are affine semigroups, which in particular implies…

A numerical semigroup is said to be ordinary if it has all its gaps in a row. Indeed, it contains zero and all integers from a given positive one. One can define a simple operation on a non-ordinary semigroup, which we call here the…

In this paper we elaborate on the structure of the semigroup tree and the regularities on the number of descendants of each node observed earlier. These regularites admit two different types of behavior and in this work we investigate which…
