My intention in this paper is to outline and motivate a novel theory of syntactic bootstrapping, Exemplar-Based Phonological Bootstrapping (EBPB), based on Stochastic Tree-Substitution Grammar. Because I have outlined the basic structure of STSG in other places for assessed work on this degree, I will not recapitulate that work in the body of the present paper, but will instead quote it in full...

Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) does not support data transmission during random access (RA) procedures, which results in unnecessary control signalling overhead and power consumption, especially for small (SDT). Motivated by this, 3GPP has proposed 4/2-step SDT RA schemes based on the existing grant-based (4-step) grant-free (2-step) schemes, with aim to enable procedures Resource Control...

Let Uq(g) be the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group, which is a deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra g. In the generic case, i.e. the parameter q is not a root of unity, several models have been raised to realize it. For example, the Ringel-Hall algebra approach is one successful model among them, see [10, 5, 11]. The case where q is a root of...

First, a suitable transformatio...

We show that several problems of compacting orthogonal graph drawings to use the minimum number of rows, area, length of longest edge or total edge length cannot be approximated better than within a polynomial factor of optimal in polynomial time unless P = NP. We also provide a fixed-parameter-tractable algorithm for testing whether a drawing can be compacted to a small number of rows. Submitt...

We consider random topologies of surfaces generated by cubic interactions. Such surfaces arise in various contexts in 2-dimensional quantum gravity and as worldsheets of string theory. Our results are most conveniently expressed in terms of a parameter h = n/2+χ, where n is the number of interaction vertices and χ is the Euler characteristic of the surface. Simulations and results for similar m...

In the classical perturbation theory of conditionally periodic motions series occur that, due to resonances, diverge on a dense set. In the complement of the resonances, small divisors make convergence problematic. Nonetheless, convergence of the series can be established in a nowhere dense set of positive Hausdorff measure in a suitable dimension. In the product of phase space and parameter sp...

Quons are particles characterized by the parameter q, which permits smooth interpolation between Bose and Fermi statistics; q = 1 gives bosons, q = −1 gives fermions. In this paper we give a heuristic argument for an extension of conservation of statistics to quons with trilinear couplings of the form f̄ fb, where f is fermion-like and b is boson-like. We show that q2 f = qb. In particular, we r...

Dynamic binding is a runtime operation which looks up some names in some environments: examples are quote and eval in LISP or object-oriented message passing. We present a functional language, in the spirit of ML or Haskell, which supports dynamic binding. At the surface level, the language supports constructs such as extensible records, variants, extensible case selection, quoted terms, and ca...
