Parsing for Semidirectional Lambek Grammar is NP-Complete

چکیده

We study the computational complexity of the parsing problem of a variant of Lambek Categorial Grammar that we call semidirectional. In semidirectional Lambek calculus SDL there is an additional nondirectional abstraction rule allowing the formula abstracted over to appear anywhere in the premise sequent’s left-hand side, thus permitting non-peripheral extraction. SDL grammars are able to generate each context-free language and more than that. We show that the parsing problem for semidirectional Lambek Grammar is NP-complete by a reduction of the 3Partition problem.

The Lambek-Grishin Calculus Is NP-Complete

The Lambek-Grishin calculus LG is the symmetric extension of the non-associative Lambek calculus NL. In this paper we prove that the derivability problem for LG is NP-complete.

Lambek calculus is NP-complete

We prove that for both the Lambek calculus L and the Lambek calculus allowing empty premises L∗ the derivability problem is NP-complete. It follows that also for the multiplicative fragments of cyclic linear logic and noncommutative linear logic the derivability problem is NP-complete.

Product-Free Lambek Calculus Is NP-Complete

In this paper we prove that the derivability problems for productfree Lambek calculus and product-free Lambek calculus allowing empty premises are NP-complete. Also we introduce a new derivability characterization for these calculi.

An Earley-style Predictive Chart Parsing Method for Lambek Grammars

We present a new chart parsing method for Lambek grammars, inspired by a method for DTree grammar parsing. The formulae of a Lambek sequent are firstly converted into rules of an indexed grammar formalism, which are used in an Earley-style predictive chart algorithm. The method is non-polynomial, but performs well for practical purposes much better than previous chart methods for Lambek grammar...
