Realisable Sets of Catenary Degrees of Numerical Monoids

Abstract: The catenary degree is an invariant that measures the distance between factorizations of elements within an atomic monoid. In this paper, we classify which finite subsets of Z ≥0 occur as the set of catenary degrees of a numerical monoid (i.e., a co-finite, additive submonoid of Z ≥0 ). In particular, we show that, with one exception, every finite subset of Z ≥0 that can possibly occur as the set of catenary degrees of some atomic monoid is actually achieved by a numerical monoid.

“…Indeed, as shown in Example 5.4.2, for every n 2 N there is an order R in a quadratic number field whose localization R p at a maximal ideal p is finitely primary of exponent greater than or equal to the given n but the catenary degree cðR p Þ is bounded by 5 [9, Theorem 1.1].
