Position vectors of numerical semigroups

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We provide a new way to represent numerical semigroups by showing that the position of every Ap'ery set of a numerical semigroup S in the enumeration of the elements of S is unique, and that S can be re-constructed from this "position vector." We extend the discussion to more general objects called numerical sets, and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between m-tuples of positive integers and the position vectors of numerical sets closed under addition by m+1. We consider the problem of determining which position vectors correspond to numerical semigroups.
