The type and cardinality of minimal presentations of numerical semigroups with embedding dimension four

Abstract

For a numerical semigroup S with embedding dimension four, we study the relationship between its type t(S) and the cardinality of its minimal presentations η(S). Using an approach based on the geometry of the Apéry set, we prove that 4t(S) + 5 ≥ η(S) ≥ t(S)−11. This resolves a problem of Moscariello and Sammartano asking whether t(S) is bounded by a function of η(S), and improves the previously known bound 9t(S) + 4 ≥ η(S) due to Bresinsky.
