Derivational Minimalism is Mildly Context-Sensitive
by Jens Michaelis — 1998 — In Proceedings, Logical Aspects of Computational Linguistics, LACL’98
…this paper we address the issue by showing that each MG as deøned in [3] falls into the class of mildly contextsensitive grammars (MCSGs) as described in e.g. [1]. The proof of our claim is essentially done by converting a given MG into a linear contextfree rewriting system (LCFRS) which derives the…

Some Formal Implications of a Revised Perspective on Minimalist Grammars
by Jens Michaelis — 2001
…The type of a minimalist grammar (MG) as introduced by Stabler [12] provides an attempt of a rigorous formalization of the perspectives adopted nowadays within the linguistic framework of transformational grammar. As shown by Michaelis [6], MGs expose a weakly equivalent subclass of multiple con…

Observations on Strict Derivational Minimalism
by Jens Michaelis — 2001
…Deviating from the denition as originally presented in [11], Stabler [12] introduced inspired by some recent proposals within the minimalist framework a (revised) type of a minimalist grammar (MG) as well as a certain type of a strict MG. These two types can be shown to determine the same class of d…

A Note on Countercyclicity and Minimalist Grammars
by Hans-Martin Gärtner, Jens Michaelis — 2003
…Introduction Minimalist grammars (MGs), as introduced in Stabler (1997), have proven a useful instrument in the formal analysis of syntactic theories developed within the minimalist branch of the principles--and--parameters framework (cf. Chomsky 1995, 2000). In fact, as shown in Michaelis (2001), …

Semilinearity as a Syntactic Invariant
by Jens Michaelis, Marcus Kracht — 1996
…. Mildly context sensitive grammar formalisms such as multicomponent TAGs and linear context free rewrite systems have been introduced to capture the full complexity of natural languages. We show that, in a formal sense, Old Georgian can be taken to provide an example of a non-semilinear languag…

How linguistic constraints on movement conspire to yield languages analyzable with a restricted form of LIGs
by Jens Michaelis, Christian Wartena — 1997
…. Within a GB--like framework movement out of an object seems to be a valid concept for the description of natural languages whereas movement out of subjects and adjuncts is almost impossible. In a framework in which the notion object is determined configurationally, this condition on movement restr…

Unidirectional Inheritance of Indices - A Weakly Context Free Facet of LIGs
by Jens Michaelis, Christian Wartena — 1998 — In Proceedings of the Joint Conference on Formal Grammar, Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar, and Categorial Grammar, FHCG-98
…. In this paper a restricted type of linear indexed grammar (LIG) is defined, called unidirectional indexed grammar (UIG). This is done essentially by demanding that the inheritance of an index stack is either strictly rightmost or strictly leftmost as long as the stack is not empty. Although they t…

Workshop TAG+5, Paris, 25-27 May 2000
by Jens Michaelis And, Jens Michaelis, Uwe Mnnich, Frank Morawietz — 2000 — Proceedings of the Tag+5 Conference
…In this paper we extend the work by Michaelis (1999) which shows how to encode an arbitrary Minimalist Grammar in the sense of Stabler (1997) into a weakly equivalent multiple contextfree grammar (MCFG). By viewing MCFG rules as terms in a free Lawvere theory we can translate a given MCFG into a reg…
