A numerical set is a co-finite subset of the natural numbers that contains zero. Its Frobenius number is the largest number in its complement. Each numerical set has an associated semigroup $A(T)=\{t\mid t+T\subseteq T\}$, which has the…
An $\mathcal{A}$-semigroup is a numerical semigroup without consecutive small elements. This work generalizes this concept to finite-complement submonoids of an affine cone $\mathcal{C}$. We develop algorithmic procedures to compute all…
A simple way of computing the Ap\'ery set of a numerical semigroup (or monoid) with respect to a generator, using Groebner bases, is presented, together with a generalization for affine semigroups. This computation allows us to calculate…
We study the extended Frobenius problem for sequences of the form $\{l_a\}\cup\{l_a+l_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ and $\{l_a+l_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $\{l_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ is the Lucas series and $l_a$ is a Lucas number. As a…
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 the Frobenius problem we are given a set of coprime, positive integers $a_1, a_2,...,a_k$, and are interested in the set of positive numbers NR that have no representation by the linear form $\sum_i a_ix_i$ in nonnegative integers $x_1,…
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…
The pseudo-Frobenius numbers of a numerical semigroup are those gaps of the numerical semigroup that are maximal for the partial order induced by the semigroup. We present a procedure to detect if a given set of integers is the set of…
For a nonnegative integer $p$, we give explicit formulas for the $p$-Frobenius number and the $p$-genus of generalized Fibonacci numerical semigroups. Here, the $p$-numerical semigroup $S_p$ is defined as the set of integers whose…
We present procedures to calculate the set of Arf numerical semigroups with given genus, given conductor and given genus and conductor. We characterize the Kunz coordinates of an Arf numerical semigroup. We also describe Arf numerical…
We give an asymptotic estimate of the number of numerical semigroups of a given genus. In particular, if $n_g$ is the number of numerical semigroups of genus $g$, we prove that $n_g$ tends to $S \phi^g$, where $\phi$ is the golden ratio,…
Delorme suggested that the set of all complete intersection numerical semigroups can be computed recursively. We have implemented this algorithm, and particularized it to several subfamilies of this class of numerical semigroups: free and…
Let $m,s,t$ are positive integers with $t\leq s-2$ and $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_s$ are positive integers such that $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_{s-1})=1$. In the paper we prove that every sufficiently large positive integer can be written in the form…
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…
We introduce a module-theoretic approach and a linear-programming method to compute the matricial dimension of numerical semigroups. We use these to compute the matricial dimension of every numerical semigroup with Frobenius number at most…
We find a relation between the genus of a quotient of a numerical semigroup $S$ and the genus of $S$ itself. We use this identity to compute the genus of a quotient of $S$ when $S$ has embedding dimension $2$. We also exhibit identities…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of Arf special gaps of an Arf numerical semigroup, and an algorithm for computing all Arf special gaps of a given Arf numerical semigroup. We introduce the concept of Arf-irreducible numerical…
This paper is a continuation of the paper "Numerical Semigroups: Ap\'ery Sets and Hilbert Series". We consider the general numerical AA-semigroup, i.e., semigroups consisting of all non-negative integer linear combinations of relatively…
A common tool in the theory of numerical semigroups is to interpret a desired class of semigroups as the integer lattice points in a rational polyhedron in order to leverage computational and enumerative techniques from polyhedral geometry.…
Let $N \geq2$ and let $1 < a_1 < ... < a_N$ be relatively prime integers. Frobenius number of this $N$-tuple is defined to be the largest positive integer that cannot be expressed as $\sum_{i=1}^N a_i x_i$ where $x_1,...,x_N$ are…
