Weierstrass semigroups whose minimum positive integers are even

We consider three subsets of the set of 2n-semigroups, where for a positive integer n a 2n-semigroup means a numerical semigroup whose minimum positive integer is 2n. These three subsets are obtained by the Weierstrass semigroups of total ramification points on a cyclic covering of the projective line, the Weierstrass semigroups of ramification points on a double covering of a non-singular curve and the Weierstrass semigroups of points on a non-singular curve. We show that the three subsets are different for n ≧ 3. Partially supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (17540046), Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. Received: 19 June 2006
