Nicholas and Joseph (this volume) identify a class of previously unnoticed compounds of the form V+V in modern Greek, and establish some significant descriptive generalizations about them. They argue that V+V compounds are true morphological compound words, the verbal analogs of nominal dvandva compounds, and not syntactic phrases or verb clusters. The existence of such compounds in Greek is in...

an object $x$ of a category $mathbf{c}$ with finite limits is called exponentiable if the functor $-times x:mathbf{c}rightarrow mathbf{c}$ has a right adjoint. there are many characterizations of the exponentiable  spaces in the category $mathbf{top}$ of topological spaces. here, we study the exponentiable objects in the category $mathbf{stop}$ of soft topological spaces which is a generalizati...

Communication includes all the ways that human beings can influence others. This involves not only speaking or writing, but also all human behavior in various ways, so there are two types of communicational signs that human beings use: verbal and non-verbal signs. In communication science, special attention has been paid to how non-verbal signs influence message transmission. The research has s...

It is well known that the existence of a braiding in a monoidal category V allows many structures to be built upon that foundation. These include a monoidal 2-category V-Cat of enriched categories and functors over V , a monoidal bicategory V-Mod of enriched categories and modules, a category of operads in V and a 2-fold monoidal category structure on V . We will begin by focusing our expositio...

In addition to having communicative functions, verbal labels may play a role in shaping concepts. Two experiments assessed whether the presence of labels affected category formation. Subjects learned to categorize "aliens" as those to be approached or those to be avoided. After accuracy feedback on each response was provided, a nonsense label was either presented or not. Providing nonsense cate...

In an earlier work, we constructed the almost strict Morse n-category X which extends Cohen & Jones & Segal’s flow category. In this article, we define two other almost strict n-categories V and W where V is based on homomorphisms between real vector spaces and W consists of tuples of positive integers. The Morse index and the dimension of the Morse moduli spaces give rise to almost strict n-ca...

Happiness and life satisfaction have traditionally been measured using verbal response scales, however, these verbal scales have not kept up with the present trend to use numerical response scales. A switch from a verbal scale to a numerical scale, however, causes a severe problem for trend analyses, due to the incomparability of the old and new measurements. The Reference Distribution Method i...

For a monad S on a categoryK whose Kleisli category is a quantaloid, we introduce the notion of modularity, in such a way that morphisms in the Kleisli category may be regarded as V(bi)modules (= profunctors, distributors), for some quantale V . The assignment S // V is shown to belong to a global adjunction which, in the opposite direction, associates with every (commutative, unital) quantale ...
