  1. In this paper, we provide a simple proof of the Holonomy theorem using a new Lyndon–Chiswell length function on the Karnofsky–Rhodes expansion of a semigroup. Unexpectedly, we have both a left and a right action on the Chiswell tree by elliptic maps.

  2. Abstract For numerical semigroups with a specified list of (not necessarily minimal) generators, we describe the asymptotic distribution of factorization lengths with respect to an arbitrary modulus. In particular, we prove that the factorization lengths are equidistributed across all congruence classes that are not trivially ruled out by modular considerations.

  3. Abstract Several recent papers have examined a rational polyhedronPmwhose integer points are in bijection with the numerical semigroups (cofinite, additively closed subsets of the non-negative integers) containingm. A combinatorial description of the faces ofPmwas recently introduced, one that can be obtained from the divisibility posets of the numerical semigroups a given face contains. In this paper, we study the faces ofPmcontaining arithmetical numerical semigroups and those containing certain glued numerical semigroups, as an initial step towards better understanding the full face structure ofPm. In most cases, such faces only contain semigroups from these families, yielding a tight connection to the geometry ofPm
