The multiples of a numerical semigroup

Ignacio Ojeda, José Carlos Rosales

Abstract

Given two numerical semigroups $S$ and $T$ we say that $T$ is a multiple of $S$ if there exists an integer $d \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}$ such that $S = \{x \in \mathbb{N} \mid d x \in T\}$. In this paper we study the family of multiples of a (fixed) numerical semigroup. We also address the open problem of finding numerical semigroups of embedding dimension $e$ without any quotient of embedding dimension less than $e$, and provide new families with this property.

Key Result

Lemma 2

Let $S$ and $T$ be two numerical semigroups. Given $d \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}$, one has that $T$ is $d-$multiple of $S$ if and only if Specifically, in this case, $\operatorname{F}(T) \geq d \operatorname{F}(S)$.
