Frequencies and discourse functions of grammatical subject types were investigated in a corpus of forty results and discussion sections selected from four disciplines (Applied Linguistics, Psychology, Chemistry, and Environmental Engineering). The results and discussion sections were selected from research articles that were published in 2008-2012 issues of prestigious high journals of ...

This article is a contribution to the study of the automorphism groups of 2−(v, k, 1) designs. Let D be 2−(v, 13, 1) design, G ≤ Aut(D) be block transitive, point primitive but not flag transitive. Then Soc(G), the socle of G, is not classical simple group over finite filed GF (q)(q odd). Mathematics Subject Classification: 05B05, 20B25

The purpose of this note is to construct new self-dual codes over GF (7) of lengths 28 with the highest known minimum weights. We show the existence of at least 74 self-dual [28,14, 10] codes. Mathematics Subject Classification: 94B05

In this article, considering impersonal sentences with the subject in the accusative case, which conveys the physical state of a living being, an attempt is made to compare them with the Persian correlates. This type of impersonal sentences can cause different problems for the Persian-speaking students due to their grammatical specificity (e.g. the uses of the subject in the accusative, rather ...

We discuss a simple computational method for the construction of finite projective planes. The planes so constructed all possess a special group of automorphisms which we call the group of translations, but they are not always translation planes. Of the four planes of order 9, three admit the additive group of the field GF (9) as a group of translations, and the present construction yields all ...

The purpose of the present study is to analyse abstracts related to Applied Linguistics, and more precisely the discourse functions of grammatical subjects and verbs. The corpus consisted of 50 PhD thesis abstracts written on the subject of Applied Linguistics. All of the abstracts were written from 2010 to 2014. The theses from which the abstracts were extracted are available in the ProQuest d...
