Type clash and coercion in logical metonymy Logical metonymy (begin the book → begin writing the book) has traditionally been accounted for by means of type-shift: according to these theories (Pustejovsky 1995), the type clash between the event-selecting verb (begin) and the entity-denoting object (book) triggers a coercion mechanism that shifts the type of the object into an event (book → writ...

We derive whole series of new integral inequalities of the Hardy-type, with non-conjugate exponents. First, we prove and discuss two equivalent general inequa-li-ties of such type, as well as their corresponding reverse inequalities. General results are then applied to special Hardy-type kernel and power weights. Also, some estimates of weight functions and constant factors are obtained. ...

Constant-psi constant-delta contour maps in the reduced angle-of-incidence-film-thickness plane that are useful in ellipsometry and in design of reflection-type optical devices are discussed. As a specific example, a contour map is given for the SiO(2)-Si film-substrate system at the 6328-A He-Ne laser wavelength.
