The multidimensional Frobenius problem

Jeffrey Amos, Iuliana Pascu, Vadim Ponomarenko, Enrique Treviño and Yan Zhang

Vol. 4 (2011), No. 2, 187–197
Abstract

We provide a variety of results concerning the problem of determining maximal vectors g such that the Diophantine system Mx = g has no solution: conditions for the existence of g, conditions for the uniqueness of g, bounds on g, determining g explicitly in several important special cases, constructions for g, and a reduction for M.
