Syzygies of \textit{GS} monomial curves and Weierstrass property (Q284673)

Let \(S\subseteq \mathbb{N}\) be a semigroup generated by a generalized arithmetic sequence, that is \(S=\langle m_0, hm_0+d,hm_0 + 2d, \dots , hm_0+nd \rangle \), where \((m_0,d)=1\) and \(h\geq 1\). To \(S\) one can associate an affine monomial curve over a field \(k\) with coordinate ring \(R=k[t^s\mid s\in S]\). In this paper the authors compute the minimal free resolution of \(R\), extending a previous result in [\textit{P. Gimenez} et al., J. Algebra 388, 294--310 (2013; Zbl 1291.13021)] for arithmetic sequences (\(h=1\)). Moreover, for a large class of semigroups generated by arithmetic sequences, they give smooth deformations of the matrices in the minimal free resolution, which they use to prove the Weierstrass property for these semigroups.
