We study commutative algebra arising from generalised Frobenius numbers. The $k$-th (generalised) Frobenius number of natural numbers $(a_1,\dots,a_n)$ is the largest natural number that cannot be written as a non-negative integral…

The Frobenius number for a set of relatively prime positive integers, where the smallest integer in the set is at least 2, is the largest integer that cannot be expressed as a nonnegative linear combination of those integers. We analyze the…

Let $n$ be a positive integer greater than $2$. We define \textit{the Proth numerical semigroup}, $P_{k}(n)$, generated by $\{k 2^{n+i}+1 \,\mid\, i \in \mathbb{N}\}$, where $k$ is an odd positive number and $k < 2^{n}$. In this paper, we…
