Introduction: Partitive elements in the languages of Europe:An advancement in the understanding of a multifaceted phenomenon [PDF]
The aim of this chapter is to introduce the reader to the multifaceted phenomenon of partitivity and the cross-linguistic properties found in the language of Europe as regards Parttitive determiners, Partitive Pronouns and Partitive Case, compared to ...

Understanding partitions and the 'no partition' assumption [PDF]
Discusses partitions in asynchronous message-passing systems. In such systems, slow processes and slow links can lead to virtual partitions that are indistinguishable from real ones. To overcome the impossibility of detecting crashed processes in an asynchronous system, the system model incorporates a failure suspector to detect (possibly erroneously ...

Linguistics : An Interdisciplinary Journal of the Language Sciences / Special Issue: Shades of partitivity: Formal and areal properties [PDF]
At the heart of this special issue are partitive elements (i. e., partitive articles, partitive pronouns, and partitive case markers) which can express different “shades” of partitivity, namely true partitivity, pseudopartitivity, or indefiniteness, that

Partitivity Ratings for Modifier-Types
The objective of this study is to collect partitivity ratings for modifier-types embedded in collective noun constructions in order to find evidence that the theoretically derived three-part distinction among modifier-types concerning their partitivity ...

Multiplicative Partitions [PDF]
New formulas for the multiplicative partition function are developed. Besides giving a fast algorithm for generating these partitions, new identities for additive partitions and the Riemann zeta function are also produced.

On the source of proper partitivity [PDF]
This paper investigates into the meaning and use of partitive constructions such as three of John’s lawyers. These constructions have long been observed to give rise to inferences of proper partitivity: upon hearing a sentence like Sue talked to three of

Reconstruction of Partitions [PDF]
For the partition $x=[x_1\ge x_2\ge \cdots\ge x_k]$ of the integer $n=\sum_{i}\, x_{i}$ a $t$-deletion is a partition $y=[y_1\ge y_2\ge \cdots\ge y_k]$ with $x_{i}\geq y_{i}\geq 0$ and $\sum_{i}\, (x_{i}-y_{i})=t$. We prove that all partitions of $n$ are reconstructible from their $t$–deletions if $n$ is sufficiently large in relation to $t$.
