Factorization invariants in numerical monoids

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2979658




Abstract: Nonunique factorization in commutative monoids is often studied using factorization invariants, which assign to each monoid element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical monoids (co-finite, additive submonoids of the natural numbers), several factorization invariants have received much attention in the recent literature. In this survey article, we give an overview of the length set, elasticity, delta set, omega-primality, and catenary degree invariants in the setting of numerical monoids. For each invariant, we present current major results in the literature and identify the primary open questions that remain.
