Factorization invariants of Puiseux monoids generated by geometric sequences

ST Chapman, F Gotti, M Gotti - Communications in Algebra, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
We study some of the factorization invariants of the class of Puiseux monoids generated by
geometric sequences, and we compare and contrast them with the known results for …

When is a Puiseux monoid atomic?

ST Chapman, F Gotti, M Gotti - The American Mathematical …, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
A Puiseux monoid is an additive submonoid of the nonnegative rational numbers. If M is a
Puiseux monoid, then the question of whether each nonunit element of M can be written as a …
