V. Barucci et al., MAXIMALITY PROPERTIES IN NUMERICAL SEMIGROUPS AND APPLICATIONS TO ONE-DIMENSIONAL - ANALYTICALLY IRREDUCIBLE LOCAL DOMAINS - INTRODUCTION, Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society, 125(598), 1997, pp. 9
In Chapter I, various (numerical) semigroup-theoretic concepts and con
structions are introduced and characterized. Applications in Chapter I
I are made to the study of Noetherian local one-dimensional analytical
ly irreducible integral domains, especially for the Gorenstein, maxima
l embedding dimension, and Arf cases, as well as to the so-called Kunz
case, a pervasive kind of domain of Cohen-Macaulay type 2.
