Numerical Semigroups and Applications
García-Sánchez, Pedro A. / Assi, Abdallah
This work presents applications of numerical semigroups in Algebraic Geometry, Number Theory, and Coding Theory. Background on numerical semigroups is presented in the first two chapters, which introduce basic notation and fundamental concepts and irreducible numerical semigroups. The focus is in particular on free semigroups, which are irreducible, semigroups associated with planar curves are of this kind. The authors also introduce semigroup...
