REALISABLE SETS OF CATENARY DEGREES OF NUMERICAL MONOIDS

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The catenary degree is an invariant that measures the distance between factorizations of elements within an atomic monoid. In this paper, we classify which finite subsets of mathbbZge0 occur as the set of catenary degrees of a numerical monoid (i.e., a co-finite, additive submonoid of mathbbZge0). In particular, we show that, with one exception, every finite subset of mathbbZge0 that can possibly occur as the set of catenary degrees of some atomic monoid is actually achieved by a numerical monoid.
