In this paper, I propose that the availability of a bound variable reading for pronouns is predictable from their morphological structure of the pronouns. More specifically I argue that noun-containing pronouns cannot be bound variables. My proposal is different from D&W's (2002) argument in that in their theory, every DPs cannot have a bound variable reading, while in my theory, even DPs can h...

The equivalence between autonomicity and the absence of free variables is a well-known result for linear, shift-invariant and complete behaviors over a field. However, this no longer holds for a behavior that does not satisfy one of those properties. In this paper we consider linear, shift-invariant and complete behaviors over the ring Zpr and study under which conditions such behaviors are aut...

This paper presents an analysis of the copy construction that explains its similarity to extraction constructions while accounting for its incompatibility with wh+NP phrases. Essentially, wh-phrases without an NP complement can be copied because they’re non-quantificational (introducing only a free variable into the derivation). Whphraseswith anNP complement cannot be copied because thesewh-phr...

Field equations for generalized principle models with nonconstant metric are derived and ansatz for their Lax pairs is given. Equations that define the Lax pairs are solved for the simplest solvable group. The solution is dependent on one free variable that can serve as the spectral parameter. Painlevé analysis of the resulting model is performed and its particular solutions are found 1991 MSC ...
