Let $\mathcal{C}\subseteq \mathbb{N}^p$ be an integer cone. A $\mathcal{C}$-semigroup $S\subseteq \mathcal{C}$ is an affine semigroup such that the set $\mathcal{C}\setminus S$ is finite. Such $\mathcal{C}$-semigroups are central to our…

Let $\mathcal C \subset \mathbb N^p$ be a finitely generated integer cone and $S\subset \mathcal C$ be an affine semigroup such that the real cones generated by $\mathcal C$ and by $S$ are equal. The semigroup $S$ is called $\mathcal…

The aim of this article is to study the ideal class monoid $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$ of a numerical semigroup $S$ introduced by V. Barucci and F. Khouja. We prove new bounds on the cardinality of $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$. We observe that…

Let $C\subset\mathbb{N}^p$ be an integer polyhedral cone. An affine semigroup $S\subset C$ is a $ C$-semigroup if $| C\setminus S|<+\infty$. This structure has always been studied using a monomial order. The main issue is that the choice of…

Let $\CaC\subset \Q^p$ be a rational cone. An affine semigroup $S\subset \CaC$ is a $\CaC$-semigroup whenever $(\CaC\setminus S)\cap \N^p$ has only a finite number of elements. In this work, we study the tree of $\CaC$-semigroups, give a…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…

Numerical semigroups have been extensively studied throughout the literature, and many of their invariants have been characterized. In this work, we generalize some of the most important results about symmetry, pseudo-symmetry, or…

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…

Irreducible decompositions of monomial ideals in polynomial rings over a field are well-understood. In this paper, we investigate decompositions in the set of monomial ideals in the semigroup ring A[\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^d] where A is an…

In this paper we study those submonoids of $\mathbb{N}^d$ which a non-trivial pseudo-Frobenius set. In the affine case, we prove that they are the affine semigroups whose associated algebra over a field has maximal projective dimension…

We continue our study of exponent semigroups of rational matrices. Our main result is that the matricial dimension of a numerical semigroup is at most its multiplicity (the least generator), greatly improving upon the previous upper bound…

Let $S$ and $\mathcal{C}$ be affine semigroups in $\mathbb{N}^d$ such that $S\subseteq \mathcal{C}$. We provide a characterization for the set $\mathcal{C}\setminus S$ to be finite, together with a procedure and computational tools to check…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a commutative semigroup, and let $T$ be a sequence of terms from the semigroup $\mathcal{S}$. We call $T$ an (additively) {\sl irreducible} sequence provided that no sum of its some terms vanishes. Given any element $a$…

Consider an algebraic semigroup $S$ and its closed subscheme of idempotents, $E(S)$. When $S$ is commutative, we show that $E(S)$ is finite and reduced; if in addition $S$ is irreducible, then $E(S)$ is contained in a smallest closed…

A numerical semigroup is an additive subsemigroup of the natural numbers that contains zero and has finite complement. A numerical semigroup is irreducible if it cannot be written as an intersection of numerical semigroups properly…

If the Krull dimension of the semigroup ring is greater than one, then affine semigroups of maximal projective dimension ($\mathrm{MPD}$) are not Cohen-Macaulay, but they may be Buchsbaum. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for…

We show that every quasitrivial n-ary semigroup is reducible to a binary semigroup, and we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for such a reduction to be unique. These results are then refined in the case of symmetric n-ary…

We study the semigroup extension $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ by symmetric inverse semigroups of a bounded finite rank. We describe idempotents and regular elements of the semigroups $\mathscr{I}_\lambda^n(S)$ and…

Good semigroups form a class of submonoids of $\mathbb{N}^d$ containing the value semigroups of curve singularities. In this article, we describe a partition of the complements of good semigroup ideals, having as main application the…

We introduce a general framework, based on \'etale topological categories, for studying discrete restriction semigroups and their algebras. Generalizing Paterson's universal groupoid of an inverse semigroup, we define the universal category…
