While much work has been done to inform Hierarchical Phrase-Based SMT (Chiang, 2005) models linguistically, the adjunct/argument distinction has generally not been exploited for these models. But as Shieber (2007) points out, capturing this distinction allows to abstract over ‘intervening’ adjuncts, and is thus relevant for (machine) translation in general. We contribute an adjunction-driven ap...

Let E be an ample vector bundle of rank r on a projective variety X with only log-terminal singularities. We consider the nefness of adjoint divisors KX + (t − r) detE when t ≥ dimX and t > r. As a corollary, we classify pairs (X, E) with cr-sectional genus zero. Introduction. Let X be a smooth projective variety and KX the canonical bundle of X . For the study of X , it is useful to consider a...

Three closely related proposals for adding (cyclic) adjunction to Minimalist grammars are given model-theoretic definitions and investigated with respect to their linguistic and formal properties. While they differ with respect to their linguistic adequacy, they behave largely the same on a computational level. Weak generative capacity is not affected, and while subregular complexity varies bet...

We extend Inversion of Adjunction and Semicontinity of minimal log discrepancies from the case of a smooth ambient variety, as in [EMY], to the case of local complete intersection varieties.

The DEVS formalism developed by Zeigler and Sarjoughian is extended by the use of category theory. Several functors are needed to produce the correct categories. Verification and validation is modeled by adjunction and the information-gap approach to uncer-

Given a horizontal monoid M in a duoidal category F , we examine the relationship between bimonoid structures on M and monoidal structures on the category F ∗M of right M -modules which lift the vertical monoidal structure of F . We obtain our result using a variant of the so-called Tannaka adjunction; that is, an adjunction inducing the equivalence which expresses Tannaka duality. The approach...

(i) in obtaining estimates for Bergman kernels, and (ii) in the study of multiplier ideals in algebraic geometry, we consider the situation where the L-norms on the submanifold are different from those on the ambient manifold. We make precise the setting for our work. Let X be a Kähler manifold of complex dimension n+1. Assume there exists a holomorphic function w on X, such that supX |w| = 1 a...
