Exhaustivity, continuity, and strong additivity in topological Riesz spaces.
In this paper, exhaustivity, continuity, and strong additivity are studied in the setting of topological Riesz spaces. Of particular interest is the link between strong additivity and exhaustive elements of Dedekind s-complete Banach lattices. There is a strong connection between the Diestel-Faires …

Positive Polarity and Exhaustivity in Sinhala: A Study of its Implications for Grammar
… positive polarity character associated with exhaustivity (cf. Spector (2014); Nicolae (2017)). It claims that we can account for a wide range of grammatical phenomena such as ignorance inferences, scope or non/specificity effects, free/no choice implicatures and de re/dicto readings of -hari …

Expletive negation and the decomposition of only
… obligatory due to the presence of an only-like exhaustivity operator, which gets (partially) spelled out as negation since it is composed of negation and an exceptive. Moreover, this negation is shown to share more properties with only.

Already : just scalarity
… 'likelihood' presupposition enriched with an exhaustivity operator. Such an analysis offers empirical improvements over previous analyses, notably in its ability to directly capture the earlier-than-expected inference conveyed by already.

… analysis of tagging effectiveness with tagging exhaustivity and tag specificity was conducted to ameliorate the drawbacks of consistency analysis based on only the quantitative measures of vocabulary matching. Finally, to investigate tagging pattern and behaviors, a content analysis on tag …

Do you get what I mean? Contrastive Inference and Comprehension in Children
Children by five years of age are able to form and comprehend sentences in almost adult like ways, however what we mean often requires enrichment through what isn’t said. These pragmatic effects are a result of contrastive inference and exhaustification processes that are reliant on whether or not …
