Springer | English | 2009-09-28 | ISBN: 1441901590 | 181 pages | PDF | 1,7 MB
This monograph is the first devoted exclusively to the development of the theory of numerical semigroups. In this concise, self-contained text, graduate students and researchers will benefit from this broad exposition of the topic. Key features of "Numerical Semigroups"
include: - Content ranging from the basics to open research problems and the latest advances in the field; - Exercises at the end of each chapter that expand upon and support the material; - Emphasis on the computational aspects of the theory; algorithms are presented to provide effective calculations; - Many examples that illustrate the concepts and algorithms; - Presentation of various connections between numerical semigroups and number theory, coding theory, algebraic geometry, linear programming, and commutative algebra would be of significant interest to researchers.
