## Principal ideals of finitely generated commutative monoids.(English)Zbl 1003.20052

Summary: We study the semigroups isomorphic to principal ideals of finitely generated commutative monoids. We define the concept of finite presentation for this kind of semigroups. Furthermore, we show how to obtain information on these semigroups from their presentations.
