Abstract

Patterns on numerical semigroups are multivariate linear polynomials, and they are said to be admissible if there exists a numerical semigroup such that evaluated at any nonincreasing sequence of elements of the semigroup gives integers belonging to the semigroup. In a first approach, only homogeneous patterns where analized. In this contribution we study conditions for an eventually non-homogeneous pattern to be admissible, and particularize this study to the case the independent term of the pattern is a multiple of the multiplicity of the semigroup. Moreover, for the so called strongly admissible patterns, the set of numerical semigroups admitting these patterns with fixed multiplicity mm form an mm-variety, which allows us to represent this set in a tree and to describe minimal sets of generators of the semigroups in the variety with respect to the pattern. Furthermore, we characterize strongly admissible patterns having a finite associated tree.
