Determining underlying presence in the learning of grammars that allow insertion and deletion

open access: yesGlossa, 2019
The simultaneous learning of a phonological map from inputs to outputs and a lexicon of phonological underlying forms has been a focus of several research efforts (Jarosz 2006; Apoussidou 2007; Merchant 2008; Merchant & Tesar 2008; Tesar 2014).

Smooth heaps and a dual view of self-adjusting data structures

open access: yes, 2018
We present a new connection between self-adjusting binary search trees (BSTs) and heaps, two fundamental, extensively studied, and practically relevant families of data structures.

Repair strategies in labial dissimilation: diminutive formations in Xitsonga

open access: yesStellenbosch Papers in Linguistics Plus, 2014
This paper presents phonological processes in Xitsonga diminutives. The round vowels /u/ and /o/ are changed into the glide [w] to avoid vowel hiatus.

Adaptive Spectral Galerkin Methods with Dynamic Marking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The convergence and optimality theory of adaptive Galerkin methods is almost exclusively based on the D\"orfler marking. This entails a fixed parameter and leads to a contraction constant bounded below away from zero.
