On Nominal Syntax and Permutation Fixed Points [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2020
We propose a new axiomatisation of the alpha-equivalence relation for nominal terms, based on a primitive notion of fixed-point constraint. We show that the standard freshness relation between atoms and terms can be derived from the more primitive notion

A Structural and Nominal Syntax for Diagrams [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
The correspondence between monoidal categories and graphical languages of diagrams has been studied extensively, leading to applications in quantum computing and communication, systems theory, circuit design and more.

Nominal morphology and syntax [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the quintessential typological properties of the Bantu languages is their pervasive system of noun classes and noun class agreement. This is undoubtedly the aspect of their grammatical structure that is most discussed in the literature, if only because every grammar sketch of a Bantu language contains a section on noun classes. The most complete

Relating nominal and higher-order abstract syntax specifications [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 12th international ACM SIGPLAN symposium on Principles and practice of declarative programming, 2010
Nominal abstract syntax and higher-order abstract syntax provide a means for describing binding structure which is higher-level than traditional techniques. These approaches have spawned two different communities which have developed along similar lines but with subtle differences that make them difficult to relate.

Fresh O'Caml: Nominal Abstract Syntax for the Masses

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
AbstractNominal abstract syntax, as pioneered by the 'FreshML' series of metalanguages, provides first-order tools for the representation and manipulation of syntax involving bound names, binding operations and α-equivalence. Fresh O'Caml fuses nominal abstract syntax with the full Objective Caml language to yield a functional programming language with

Constraint solving in non-permutative nominal abstract syntax [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2011
Nominal abstract syntax is a popular first-order technique for encoding, and reasoning about, abstract syntax involving binders. Many of its applications involve constraint solving.

Labeling, Concord, and Nominal Syntax in Turkish

open access: yesLanguages, 2022
According to Chomsky’s Labeling Algorithm the merger of two phrases, i.e., {XP, YP}, is labeled either via feature sharing between the two elements or by ignoring the lower copies of movement chains. It is not immediately clear, within this approach, how

Address inversion in southern Italian dialects

open access: yesIsogloss, 2022
This article proposes a ‘topological’ reinterpretation of the extended nominal architecture in relation to southern Italo-Romance vocatives with and without allocuzione inversa (‘address inversion’, Renzi 1968), a phenomenon involving the ‘inverse ...

A dependent nominal type theory [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2012
Nominal abstract syntax is an approach to representing names and binding pioneered by Gabbay and Pitts. So far nominal techniques have mostly been studied using classical logic or model theory, not type theory. Nominal extensions to simple, dependent and

A formal analysis of lip-pointing in Latin-American Spanish

open access: yesIsogloss, 2016
The present research focuses on the understudied interface between syntax and gesture within the emerging field of the dialectal syntax of Spanish.  In particular, a formal analysis of so-called lip-pointing in various Latin-American varieties of Spanish
