                <Heading>Gaps</Heading>
                A <E>gap</E> of a numerical semigroup <M>S</M> is a nonnegative integer not belonging to 
<M>S</M>. 
The <E>fundamental gaps</E> of <M>S</M> are those gaps that are maximal with respect to the partial order induced by 
division in <M>{\mathbb N}</M>.

The <E>special gaps</E> of a numerical semigroup <M>S</M>, are 
those fundamental gaps such that if they are added to the given numerical semigroup, 
then the resulting set is again a numerical semigroup.
