Subject Gaps Revisited: Complement Clauses and Complementizer-Trace Effects [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021

On the position of ECM subjects : a case study from Japanese

open access: yesLinguistica Brunensia, 2021
On the basis of new empirical data from Japanese, this paper argues that in the ECM construction where CP is projected in the embedded clause, the embedded subject undergoes A-movement to Spec of embedded CP, but not to the matrix object position.

open access: yesGlossa, 2020
Weisser (2019) reanalyzes the Breton rannig, Busan Korean interrogative complementizer alternations, and West-Germanic complementizer agreement as allomorphy instead of agreement, and proposes a set of diagnostics to distinguish allomorphy from agreement.

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2020
Physical trauma represents a major global burden. The trauma‐induced response, including activation of the innate immune system, strives for regeneration but can also lead to post‐traumatic complications.

SUBSTITUTING COMPLEMENTS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Competition Law & Economics, 2006
The presence of multiple sellers in the provision of (nonsubstitutable) complementary goods leads to outcomes that are worse than those generated by a monopoly (with a vertically integrated production of complements), a problem known in the economic literature as complementary oligopoly and recently popularized in the legal literature as the tragedy of

Multiplicative complements I

open access: yesActa Arithmetica, 2023
In this paper we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are infinite subsets of positive integers such that every positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=ab$, $a\in A$, $b\in B$, then $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{A(x)B(x)}{x}=\infty $. We also prove many other results about sets like this.
