Description
Reviews / Votes
"This book gives some basic notions related to numerical semigroups, and presents applications of numerical semigroups in algebraic geometry, number theory and coding theory. . The book contains numerous examples and computational experiments. . This book will be of value for undergraduate students and also for researchers interested in numerical semigroups and their applications." (Attila Nagy, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2017)More details
