We study the extended Frobenius problem for sequences of the form $\{f_a+f_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $\{f_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ is the Fibonacci sequence and $f_a$ is a Fibonacci number. As a consequence, we show that the family of…

For a non-negative integer $p$, one of the generalized Frobenius numbers, that is called the $p$-Frobenius number, is the largest integer that is represented at most in $p$ ways as a linear combination with nonnegative integer coefficients…

For a natural number $k>1$, let $f_k(n)$ denote the number of distinct representations of a natural number $n$ of the form $p^k+q^k$ for primes $p,q$. We prove that, for all $k>1$, $$\limsup_{n\to\infty}f_k(n)=\infty.$$ This positively…

Let $a,b$ be positive integers. In this note, we study the numerical semigroup $H=\left<a,a+1,b\right>$ and and the associated numerical semigroup ring $R=k[[H]]$. Under the certain conditions, we provide explicit formulas for the Frobenius…

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…
