Amer. Math. Soc. 131(4) (2003), 1081-1091] to any affine semigroup. We give a characterisation of Apéry sets which provides a simple way to compute Apéry sets of affine semigroups and Frobenius numbers of numerical semigroups. We also exhibit a new characterisation of the Cohen-Macaulay property for simplicial affine semigroups.}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, keywords = {free resolution}, keywords = {Betti number}, keywords = {semigroup algebra}, keywords = {affine semigroup}, keywords = {Apery set}, keywords = {Frobenius problem}, title = {The short resolution of a semigroup Algebra}, doi = {10.1017/S0004972717000612}, author = {Ojeda, Ignacio and Vigneron Tenorio, Alberto}, }
