The theory of respectively interpretation proposed in Yatabe and Tam (2021) "In defense an HPSG-based non-constituent coordination" (Linguistics Philosophy 44, pp. 1-77) entails that Binding Conditions A B need to be formulated as constraints on the form semantic representations. It is possible formulate two binding conditions such if anaphoric relations are encoded representations a way analog...

Abstract So-called respectively readings have posed serious challenges for theories of syntax and semantics. Sentences like George and Martha respectively denounced and were denounced by the governor (McCawley 1998) show that although the conjoined verbal expressions share the same syntactic subject, they do not predicate that subject in the same way; George (not Martha) denounced the governor,...

We analyse the M-theoretic generalisation of the tangent space structure group after reduction of the D = 11 supergravity theory to two space-time dimensions in the context of hidden Kac–Moody symmetries. The action of the resulting infinitedimensional ‘R symmetry’ group K(E9) on certain unfaithful, finite-dimensional spinor representations inherited from K(E10) is studied. We explain in detail...
