Abstract

Let \(\Gamma \) be a numerical semigroup. The Leamer monoid \(S_\Gamma ^s\), for \(s\in \mathbb {N}\backslash \Gamma \), is the monoid consisting of arithmetic sequences of step size s contained in \(\Gamma \). In this note, we give a formula for the \(\omega \)-primality of elements in \(S_\Gamma ^s\) when \(\Gamma \) is an numerical semigroup generated by a arithmetic sequence of positive integers.
