Syntax-semantics interface: an algebraic model

no code implementations10 Nov 2023 Matilde Marcolli, Robert C. Berwick, Noam Chomsky

We extend our formulation of Merge and Minimalism in terms of Hopf algebras to an algebraic model of a syntactic-semantic interface.

Old and New Minimalism: a Hopf algebra comparison

no code implementations17 Jun 2023 Matilde Marcolli, Robert C. Berwick, Noam Chomsky

In this paper we compare some old formulations of Minimalism, in particular Stabler's computational minimalism, and Chomsky's new formulation of Merge and Minimalism, from the point of view of their mathematical description in terms of Hopf algebras.

Mathematical Structure of Syntactic Merge

no code implementations29 May 2023 Matilde Marcolli, Noam Chomsky, Robert Berwick

The syntactic Merge operation of the Minimalist Program in linguistics can be described mathematically in terms of Hopf algebras, with a formalism similar to the one arising in the physics of renormalization.
