(Co‐)Reference All the Way Down: A Unified Theory of (Pro) Nominals in Ordinary English
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This essay joins two themes, both arising from Kripke's inspiring ideas in the theory of reference. The first theme concerns reference in general. The second examines the notion of co‐reference and the role it plays in a unified theory of pronouns for natural language.

Expletive Constructions and Agreement in Labeling Theory
Studia Linguistica, Volume 80, Issue 1, April 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, I explain how agreement occurs in English expletive constructions, in accord with recent work in the Minimalist Program. I develop a proposal that relies on feature unification and probe‐goal agreement, as well as the notion that internal merge of arguments generally applies freely.

The Functional Delta Method for Deriving Asymptotic Distributions
WIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 1, March 2026.The distribution of the scaled difference between the plug‐in estimator Tθ̂n$$ T\left({\hat{\boldsymbol{\theta}}}_n\right) $$ and the true parameter Tθ0$$ T\left({\boldsymbol{\theta}}_0\right) $$ is approximated by the distribution of the scaled difference between θ̂n$$ {\hat{\boldsymbol{\theta}}}_n $$ and θ0$$ {\boldsymbol{\theta}}_0 $$ and a ...

Market Insurance and Risk Pooling in U.S. Crop Insurance
Agricultural Economics, Volume 57, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT A common assumption is that multiple‐peril crop insurance markets suffer from market failures, thus justifying government intervention in the form of premium subsidies, operating allowances, and reinsurance agreements. One prominent rationale for intervention involves geographic correlation in agricultural production which leads to systemic ...
