Abstract In this study we examine the linguistic complexity and lexical properties of discourse associated with second person singular forms address (2PS) in Spanish spoken Medellín, Colombia. This variety exhibits use a tripartite system 2PS, which voseo , tuteo ustedeo are used, sometimes interchanged, according to sociopragmatic factors. By means completion task (DCT), 672 responses were col...

The discourse of the discussion in research articles is regarded to be of considerable significance—as in this section the findings are interpreted in light of previous research and the authors’ argumentations are put forward as a major contribution (see Hyland, 1999). For this reason, the content and structure of the discussion section have been explored in several studies; however, little att...

A renewed interest has been growing recently for the spatial dimension of trade and knowledge flows. Several contributions have shown that knowledge proximity matters in mediating flows of knowledge and that knowledge spillovers tend to occur within limited geographical boundaries. Theoretical works have also shown that geographical concentration of knowledge spillovers may play a fundamental r...

While the problem is of relevance for all forms of relativistic quantum mechanics, we specifically adhere to the point form, since it preserves the spectator character of the corresponding transition operators in any reference frame. ...
