The Sideward Pair-MERGE of the Relative Clause and Its Antecedent* [PDF]
This paper argues that Sideward Movement is possible as long as it is adjunction (Pair-MERGE), although Chomsky (2019a, b, c) and Chomsky, Gallego, and Ott (2019) exclude Sideward Movement as illegitimate.

Systems Underlying Human and Old World Monkey Communication: One, Two, or Infinite
Using artificially synthesized stimuli, previous research has shown that cotton-top tamarin monkeys easily learn simple AB grammar sequences, but not the more complex AnBn sequences that require hierarchical structure.

Compactness in semantics for merge and fair merge [PDF]
An analysis of the role of compactness in defining the semantics of the merge and fair merge operations is provided. In a suitable context of hyperspaces (sets of subsets) a set is compact iff it is the limit of a sequence of finite sets; hence, compactness generalises bounded nondeterminacy.

On concord and projection [PDF]
In the spirit of the copy theory of movement, I propose that Merge applies only to satisfy Selection or Modification. This proposal differentiates between Agreement (instantiated by an EPP-feature targeting the upper argument selected by the lexical head,

Fragments Along the Way: Minimalism as an Account of Some Stages in First Language Acquisition
We discuss two instances in which the minimalist model of syntax offers a potential account of children's linguistic behavior: the Merge analysis of phrase structure and the analysis of pronominal structures and other long distance dependencies.

Individual tree structural parameters are vital for precision silviculture in planted forests. This study used near-field LiDAR (light detection and ranging) data (i.e., unmanned aerial vehicle laser scanning (ULS) and ground backpack laser scanning (BLS)

Immediate-local MERGE as pair-Merge
One of the structure-building operations—pair-Merge/adjunction—is conceptually implied to be dispensable in the minimalist MERGE model. This article proposes that immediate-local MERGE (IL-MERGE)—extremely local application of internal MERGE—yields the ...

Language is thought to represent one of the most complex cognitive functions in humans. Here we break down complexity of language to its most basic syntactic computation which hierarchically binds single words together to form larger phrases and ...
