Betti elements and catenary degree of telescopic numerical semigroup family

OpenAlex İngilizce

The catenary degree is an invariant that measures the distance between factorizations of elements within a numerical semigroup. In general, all possible catenary degrees of the elements of the numerical semigroups occur as the catenary degree of one of its Betti elements. In this study, Betti elements of some telescopic numerical semigroup families with embedding dimension three were found and formulated. Then, with the help of these formulas, Frobenius numbers and genus of these families were obtained. Also, the catenary degrees of telescopic numerical semigroups were found with the help of factorizations of Betti elements of these semigroups.
