Generalized Frobenius numbers: Bounds and average behavior

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We produce new upper and lower bounds for the s-Frobenius number by relating it to the so called s-covering radius of a certain convex body with respect to a certain lattice; this generalizes a well-known theorem of R. Kannan for the classical Frobenius number. Using these bounds, we obtain results on the average behavior of the s-Frobenius number, extending analogous recent investigations for the classical Frobenius number by a variety of authors. We also derive bounds on the s-covering radius, an interesting geometric quantity in its own right.
