| contents | Several papers in the recent literature have studied factorization properties of affine monoids using the monoid's Betti elements. In this paper, we extend this study to more general rings and monoids. We open by demonstrating the issues with computing the complete set of Betti elements of a general commutative cancellative monoid, and as an example compute this set for an algebraic number ring of class number two. We specialize our study to the case where the monoid has a single Betti element, before examining monoids with full atomic support (that is, when each Betti element is divisible by every atom). For such a monoid, we show that the catenary degree, tame degree, and omega value agree and can be computed using the monoid's set of Betti elements. We close by considering Betti elements in block monoids, giving a "Carlitz-like" characterization of block monoids with full atomic support and proving that these are precisely the block monoids having a unique Betti element. |
