The lonely element conjecture for numerical semigroups
The lonely element conjecture for numerical semigroups
Let be a numerical semigroup, and call a nonzero small element of lonely if it has the property specified in the source. Lonely element conjecture. If every nonzero small element of is lonely, then is dimension- realizable, equivalently, its matricial dimension is at most . The paper states that this conjecture is disproved by a counterexample; the converse is known from earlier work.
