A numerical semigroup $S$ is coated with odd elements (Coe-semigroup), if $\left\{x-1, x+1\right\}\subseteq S$ for all odd element $x$ in $S$. In this note, we will study this kind of numerical semigroups. In particular, we are interested in the study of the Frobenius number, gender and embedding dimension of a numerical semigroup of this type.
We define the concentration of a numerical semigroup $S$ as $\mathsf{C}(S)=\max \left\{\text{next}_S(s)-s ~|~ s\in S \backslash \{0\}\right\}$ wherein $\text{next}_S(s)=\min\left\{x \in S ~|~ s<x\right\}$. In this paper, we study the class of numerical semigroups with concentration $2$. We give algorithms to calculate the whole set of this class of semigroups with given multiplicity, genus or Frobenius number. Separately, we prove that this class of semigroups verifies the Wilf's conjecture.
We study the structure of the family of numerical semigroups with fixed multiplicity and Frobenius number. We give an algorithmic method to compute all the semigroups in this family. As an application we compute the set of all numerical semigroups with given multiplicity and genus.
We give two algorithmic procedures to compute the whole set of almost symmetric numerical semigroups with fixed Frobenius number and type, and the whole set of almost symmetric numerical semigroups with fixed Frobenius number. Our algorithms allow to compute the whole set of almost symmetric numerical semigroups with fixed Frobenius number with similar or even higher efficiency that the known ones. They have been implemented in the GAP (http://www.gap-system.org) package NumericalSgps (http://www.gap-system.org/Packages/numericalsgps.html).
