In this paper we introduce the notion of $n$-permutation numerical semigroup. While there are just three $2$-permutation numerical semigroups, there are infinitely many $n$-permutation numerical semigroups if $n > 2$. We construct $16$…

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…

In this paper, we introduce a new depicting of the so-called numerical semigroup tree $\mathcal T$. By exploring computationally this improved picture, relying on the type notion of a semigroup, we found that the number of semigroups of…

Given a positive integer k, we investigate the class of numerical semigroups verifying the property that every two subsequent non gaps, smaller than the conductor, are spaced by at least k. These semigroups will be called k-sparse and…

In 2008, Wang \& Wang showed that the set of gaps of a numerical semigroup generated by two coprime positive integers $a$ and $b$ is equidistributed modulo 2 precisely when $a$ and $b$ are both odd. Shor generalized this in 2022, showing…

This article is partly a survey and partly a research paper. It tackles the use of Groebner bases for addressing problems of numerical semigroups, which is a topic that has been around for some years, but it does it in a systematic way…

For a positive integer $m$, a finite set of integers is said to be equidistributed modulo $m$ if the set contains an equal number of elements in each congruence class modulo $m$. In this paper, we consider the problem of determining when…

In 1990, Backelin showed that the number of numerical semigroups with Frobenius number $f$ approaches $C_i \cdot 2^{f/2}$ for constants $C_0$ and $C_1$ depending on the parity of $f$. In this paper, we generalize this result to semigroups…

A numerical semigroup is a subset of N containing 0, closed under addition and with finite complement in N. An important example of numerical semigroup is given by the Weierstrass semigroup at one point of a curve. In the theory of…

Every numerical semigroup can be expressed as an intersection of irreducible numerical semigroups. We show that the unions of sets of lengths of factorizations of numerical semigroups into irreducible numerical semigroups are all equal to…

A numerical semigroup is a sub-semigroup of the natural numbers that has a finite complement. The size of its complement is called the genus and the largest number in the complement is called its Frobenius number. We consider the set of…

We propose the notion of GAS numerical semigroup which generalizes both almost symmetric and 2-AGL numerical semigroups. Moreover, we introduce the concept of almost canonical ideal which generalizes the notion of canonical ideal in the…

We derive polynomial identities of arbitrary degree $n$ for syzygies degrees of numerical semigroups S_m=<d_1,...,d_m> and show that for n>=m they contain higher genera G_r=\sum_{s\in Z_>\setminus S_m}s^r of S_m. We find a number…

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…

We study statistical properties of random numerical semigroups of a given genus. We analyze the graph of a typical numerical semigroup, understood as a function from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$. If $S$ is a numerical semigroup of genus…

Let $S\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ be a numerical semigroup with multiplicity $m$, embedding dimension $\nu$ and conductor $c=f+1=qm-\rho$ for some $q,\rho\in\mathbb{N}$ with $\rho<m$. Let Ap$(S,m) = \{w\_0<w_1 < \ldots < w_{m-1}\}$ be the Ap\'ery…
