Numerical semigroups of small and large type

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A numerical semigroup is a sub-semigroup of the natural numbers that has a finite complement. Some of the key properties of a numerical semigroup are its Frobenius number F, genus g and type t. It is known that for any numerical semigroup fracgF+1−gleqtleq2g−F. Numerical semigroups with t=2g−F are called almost symmetric, we introduce a new property that characterises them. We give an explicit characterisation of numerical semigroups with t=fracgF+1−g. We show that for a fixed alpha the number of numerical semigroups with Frobenius number F and type F−alpha is eventually constant for large F. Also the number of numerical semigroups with genus g and type g−alpha is also eventually constant for large g.
