André Breton mythographe

A conjecture of Yves André . ∗

The introduction to [2] (and references contained therein) contains a comprehensive exposition of terminology and notations relative to this conjecture. Since we use the same terminology and notations, we do not reproduce them here. The introduction to [2] also contains an exposition of results on this conjecture obtained before the article [3] came out. In this article we prove the following t...

Reals which Compute Little André

We investigate combinatorial lowness properties of sets of natural numbers (reals). The real A is super-low if A′ ≤tt ∅′, and A is jump-traceable if the values of {e}A(e) can be effectively approximated in a sense to be specified. We investigate those properties, in particular showing that super-lowness and jump-traceability coincide within the r.e. sets but none of the properties implies the o...

Maintenance of the Breton mixed mutation

This paper investigates the mixed mutation in Breton, an endangered language which has seen a gap in transmission. Initial consonant mutation is a highly salient feature of the language, but susceptible to change in the context of widespread bilingualism and an ageing population of speakers. We investigate to what extent a younger generation is continuing to maintain the mixed mutation, and fin...

What are the conditions for a successful form of regional advocacy in a unitary state? The French region of B...
