Let $A=(a_1, a_2, ..., a_n)$ be relative prime positive integers with $a_i\geq 2$. The Frobenius number $F(A)$ is the largest integer not belonging to the numerical semigroup $\langle A\rangle$ generated by $A$. The genus $g(A)$ is the…
We prove that, for every odd prime number $p$, there are $2p-1$ paramedial quasigroups of order $p$ and $6p^2-p-1$ paramedial quasigroups of order $p^2$, up to isomorphism. We present a complete list of those which are simple.
Let K/Q be Galois, and let eta in K* whose conjugates are multiplicatively independent. For a prime p, unramified, prime to eta, let np be the residue degree of p and gp the number of P I p, then let o\_P(eta) and o\_p(eta) be the orders of…
We consider numerical semigroups $S_3 = \langle d_1,d_2,d_3\rangle$, minimally generated by three positive integers. We revisit the Wilf question in $S_3$ and, making use of identities for degrees of syzygies of such semigroups, give a…
In 1876, Edouard Lucas showed that if an integer $b$ exists such that $b^{n-1} \equiv 1 (\mathrm{mod} \ n)$ and $b^{(n-1)/p} \not\equiv 1( \mathrm{mod} \ n)$ for all prime divisors $p$ of $n-1$ , then $n$ is prime, a result known as Lucas's…
In this article we investigate the positivity of Sylow branching coefficients for symmetric groups when $p = 3$. In particular, we complete the discussion begun by Giannelli and the author in arXiv:1712.02642 (J. Algebra) and developed in…
In this paper, we consider semi-extraspecial $p$-groups $G$ that have an automorphism of order $|G:G'| - 1$. We prove that these groups are isomorphic to Sylow $p$-subgroups of ${\rm SU}_3 (p^{2a})$ for some integer $a$. If $p$ is odd, this…
If p is a prime, then the numbers 1, 2, ..., p-1 form a group under multiplication modulo p. A number g that generates this group is called a primitive root of p; i.e., g is such that every number between 1 and p-1 can be written as a power…
Let $A$ be a finite set of relatively prime positive integers, and let $S(A)$ be the set of all nonnegative integral linear combinations of elements of $A$. The set $S(A)$ is a semigroup that contains all sufficiently large integers. The…
We investigate numerical semigroups generated by any quadratic sequence with initial term zero and an infinite number of terms. We find an efficient algorithm for calculating the Ap\'ery set, as well as bounds on the elements of the Ap\'ery…
Let $p$ be a prime. We define $S(p)$ the smallest number $k$ such that every positive integer is a sum of at most $k$ squares of integers that are not divisible by $p$. In this article, we prove that $S(2)=10$, $S(3)=6$, $S(5)=5$, and…
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…
The structure of the defining ideal of the semigroup ring $k[H]$ of a numerical semigroup $H$ over a field $k$ is described, when the pseudo-Frobenius numbers of $H$ are multiples of a fixed integer.
Let $S=\left\langle s_1,\ldots,s_n\right\rangle$ be a numerical semigroup generated by the relatively prime positive integers $s_1,\ldots,s_n$. Let $k\geqslant 2$ be an integer. In this paper, we consider the following $k$-power variant of…
We introduce a class of k-potential submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces and prove that for an arbitrary positive integer k and an arbitrary nonnegative integer p, each N-dimensional Frobenius manifold can always be locally realized as…
In this paper, we give convenient formulas in order to obtain explicit expressions of a generalized Frobenius number called the $p$-Frobenius number as well as its related values. Here, for a non-negative integer $p$, the $p$-Frobenius…
For any prime $p>3$ and $j\in\mathbb{N}$ we construct examples of non-$FSZ_{p^j}$ groups of order $p^{p^j+2j-1}$. In the special case of $j=1$ this yields groups of order $p^{p+1}$, which is the minimum possible order for a non-$FSZ$…
As a consequence of the classification of finite simple groups, the classification of permutation groups of prime degree is complete, apart from the question of when the natural degree $(q^n-1)/(q-1)$ of ${\rm L}_n(q)$ is prime. We present…
Any group that has a subnormal series, in which all factors are abelian and all except the last one are $p'$-torsion-free, can be embedded into a group with a subnormal series of the same length, with the same properties and such that any…
We generalize and prove a hypothesis by V. Arnold on the parity of Frobenius number. For the case of symmetric semigroups with three generators of Frobenius numbers we found an exact formula, which in a sense is the sum of two Sylvester's…
