Structure of the Numerical Semigroup Tree of Multiplicity 6

Jake Yuraszeck

A numerical semigroup S is a subset of the natural numbers (with 0) that satisfy two properties: there are a finite number of natural numbers that aren't in S, and the sum of any two numbers in S is in S. The set of all numerical semigroups can be organized in a tree structure based on their fundamental properties. We study the tree structure of numerical semigroups that have 6 as the smallest non-zero element.
