%0 Journal Article %A García García, Juan Ignacio %A Ojeda, Ignacio %A Rosales, Jose Carlos %A Vigneron Tenorio, Alberto %T On pseudo-Frobenius elements of submonoids of Nd %D 2020 %@ 0010-0757 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10498/37314 %X In this paper we study those submonoids of Nd with a nontrivial pseudo-Frobenius set. In the affine case, we prove that they are the affine semigroups whose associated algebra over a field has maximal projective dimension possible. We prove that these semigroups are a natural generalization of numerical semigroups and, consequently, most of their invariants can be generalized. In the last section we introduce a new family of submonoids of Nd and using its pseudo-Frobenius elements we prove that the elements in the family are direct limits of affine semigroups. %K Affine semigroups %K Numerical semigroups %K Frobenius elements %K Pseudo-Frobenius elements %K Apéry sets %K Gluings %K Free resolution %K Irreducible semigroups %~ Universidad de Cádiz
