In this work, a geometrical characterization of these semigroups is given. On the basis of this geometrical approach, some algorithms are provided to check if a semigroup S in N n, with N^n \ S a finite set, is a proportionally modular affine semigroup %K Affine semigroup %K modular Diophantine inequalities %K numerical semigroup %K proportionally modular numerical semigroup %~ Universidad de Cádiz
