Superlative Objoid Constructions in British and American English

open access: yesWorld Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates regional variation in Superlative Objoid constructions (SOCs) and their prepositional variant (at‐SOCs). SOCs combine a possessive pronoun with a superlative adjective. These function as manner‐degree modifiers in a context where the possessive is in postverbal position and correlative with the subject, as in they tried

The Indian English Complaint Tradition: ‘Old Chestnuts’ and New Perspectives

open access: yesWorld Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT English usage in India has been the target of a linguistic complaint tradition ‘which has taken the form of complaint about so‐called mis‐use of language and linguistic decline’ since the 19th century. The Indian English (IndE) complaint tradition in the 21st century has shifted from colonial to postcolonial in that IndE usage is now targeted ...

Lifts of continuous and Hölder alpha curves in the configuration space MN/SN$M^N/S_N$

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract In this paper, we study the quotient space X=MN/SN$X = M^N / S_N$ of equivalence classes of N$N$‐tuples in a metric space (M,dM)$(M, d_M)$, equipped with the metric induced by the minimal total pairing distance. Given a continuous path F:(0,1)→X$F: (0,1) \rightarrow X$, we prove that there exist continuous functions f1,⋯,fN:(0,1)→M$f_1, \dots,

On computing local monodromy and the numerical local irreducible decomposition

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Similarly to the global case, the local structure of a holomorphic subvariety at a given point is described by its local irreducible decomposition. Geometrically, the key requirement for obtaining a local irreducible decomposition is to compute the local monodromy action of a generic linear projection at the given point, which is always well ...

Context‐free graphs and their transition groups

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Starting from context‐free inverse graphs, we introduce a new class of groups and study their structural properties. We establish closure properties, show that their coword problems are context‐free, analyze torsion elements, and realize them as subgroups of the asynchronous rational group.
