A decomposition of Arf semigroups

The aim of this work is to exhibit a kind of primitive semigroup decomposition of Arf semigroups using combinatorial properties of partitions of a positive integer n.

On Partitions and Arf Semigroups

In this study we examine some combinatorial properties of the Arf semigroup. In previous work, the author and Karakaş, Gümüşbaş defined an Arf partition of a positive integer n. Here, we continue this work and give new results on Arf partitions. In particular, we analyze the relation among an Arf partition, its Young dual diagram, and the corresponding rational Young diagram. Additionally, this study contains some results that present the relations between partitions and Arf semigroup polynomials.

Arf good semigroups

In this paper, we study the property of the Arf good subsemigroups of [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text]. We give a way to compute all the Arf semigroups with a given collection of multiplicity branches. We also deal with the problem of determining the Arf closure of a set of vectors and of a good semigroup, extending the concept of characters of an Arf numerical semigroup to Arf good semigroups.
