چکیده

This paper revisits the status of long-distance intermediate-scope readings of indefinites (Kratzer 1998, Schwarz 2001, Endriss 2009, among others). An experimental study with native English speakers investigates two questions: whether intermediate-scope readings are distinct from functional readings; and whether there is any difference in the availability of functional readings to a indefinites vs. to a certain indefinites. The findings indicate that intermediate-scope readings are equally available in contexts that set up a functional relationship and in contexts that do not set up such a relationship. At the same time, intermediate-scope readings are found to be more readily available to a certain indefinites than to a indefinites. Implications of these findings for claims about the status of functional and intermediate-scope readings (Schwarz 2001, Endriss 2009) are discussed; the findings point to the methodological difficulty of setting up contexts that tease apart functional and non-functional readings of indefinites.

Digital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces

In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...
