Bound conjecture for Wilf numbers of semimodules
Bound conjecture for Wilf numbers of semimodules
Let be a numerical semigroup and let denote its Wilf function. A -semimodule is a non-empty, bounded-below subset satisfying ; let be its Wilf function evaluated at . If is a gap of , write for the semimodule minimally generated by and .
Bound conjecture. There exists a semimodule minimally generated by for a gap of , such that
This conjecture proposes a lower bound relating the Wilf number of a suitable two-generated semimodule to the Wilf number of the numerical semigroup. The paper introduces it as a conjectural tool toward understanding Wilf's conjecture; no resolution is stated.
