A generalized numerical semigroup is a submonoid of $\mathbb{N}^d$ with finite complement in it. In this work we study some properties of three different classes of generalized numerical semigroups. In particular, we prove that the first…

A generalised numerical semigroup (GNS) is a submonoid $S$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$ for which the complement $\mathbb{N}^d\setminus S$ is finite. The points in the complement $\mathbb{N}^d\setminus S$ are called gaps. A gap $F$ is considered…

For a numerical semigroup, we encode the set of primitive elements that are larger than its Frobenius number and show how to produce in a fast way the corresponding sets for its children in the semigroup tree. This allows us to present an…

A numerical semigroup is a subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition. For a randomly generated numerical semigroup, the expected number of minimum generators can be expressed in terms of a doubly-indexed sequence of…

The common behaviour of many families of numerical semigroups led up to defining, firstly, the Frobenius varieties and, secondly, the (Frobenius) pseudo-varieties. However, some interesting families are still out of these definitions. To…

Semigroup theory is a branch of abstract algebra, and it provides mathematical tools for the theory of computation. Finite semigroups can describe state transition systems and thus they model physically realizable computers. Engineering…

In this work we will show that if $F$ is a positive integer, then ${\mathrm{Sat}}(F)=\{S\mid S \mbox{ is a saturated numerical semigroup with Frobenius number } F\}$ is a covariety. As a consequence, we present two algorithms: one that…

For a positive integer $m$, a finite set of integers is said to be equidistributed modulo $m$ if the set contains an equal number of elements in each congruence class modulo $m$. In this paper, we consider the problem of determining when…

In this paper we present a new kind of semigroups called convex body semigroups which are generated by convex bodies of R^k. They generalize to arbitrary dimension the concept of proportionally modular numerical semigroup of [7]. Several…

A numerical semigroup is an additive subsemigroup of the non-negative integers. In this paper, we consider parametrized families of numerical semigroups of the form $P_n = \langle f_1(n), \ldots, f_k(n) \rangle$ for polynomial functions…

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…

A numerical set $T$ is a subset of $\mathbb N_0$ that contains $0$ and has finite complement. The atom monoid of $T$ is the set of $x \in \mathbb N_0$ such that $x+T \subseteq T$. Marzuola and Miller introduced the anti-atom problem: how…

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…

We characterise the numerical semigroups with a monotone Ap\'ery set (MANS-semigroups for abbreviate). Moreover, we describe the families of MANS-semigroups when we set the multiplicity and the ratio.
