Degree Variables by Choose Degree in Izyooni 'than'-Clauses
نویسنده
چکیده
Clausal izyooni ‘than’-comparatives in Japanese allow izyooni ‘than’-clauses with their degree positons filled. I consider them a degree version of Internally Headed Relative Clauses (IHRCs). In this preliminary study, I adopt Gross and Landman’s (2012) Choose Role analysis of IHRCs in Japanese and propose a similar functional category Choose Degree, which “re-opens” a degree variable position for “closed” izyooni-clauses. This makes it possible for once closed izyooni-clauses to denote a set of degrees.

متن کاملBounds on Threshold of Regular Random k-SAT
We consider the regular model of formula generation in conjunctive normal form (CNF) introduced by Boufkhad et. al. in [6]. In [6], it was shown that the threshold for regular random 2-SAT is equal to unity. Also, upper and lower bound on the threshold for regular random 3-SAT were derived. Using the first moment method, we derive an upper bound on the threshold for regular random k-SAT for any...
