title: On base radical and semisimple classes defined by class operators

authors: McConnell, N. R.

subjects: radical class

abstract: By using class operators, we define base radical and semisimple classes, within a broad abstract setting due to Puczylowski. The new notions agree with the usual Kurosh–Amitsur ones for associative rings and groups but differ for not necessarily associative rings, in general lying strictly between the Kurosh–Amitsur and torsion theory notions. A study of the class operators for their own sake is initiated, and a connection with modal logic is made.

title: Where else have TDRs been applied

authors: Martelli, Phillip

abstract: Phillip originally hails from Reporoa. His upbringing and living rurally in the Western Bay of Plenty District for many years, including developing his own orchard, gives him a strong appreciation of the rural environment. Phillip has been with the Western Bay of Plenty District Council for 23 years. As the policy planning manager he has been involved with the evolution of the Protection Lot Rule in district plans from the very beginning. Originally they were bush protection lots for on-site subdivision but now they are a tradable commodity allowing the rights to a title to be transferred to elsewhere in the district.

title: Verbs in Māori: The problem of definitional criteria

authors: Whaanga, Hēmi

subjects: te reo Māori

abstract: A range of different types of criteria has been applied at different points in the history of the classification of verbs in Māori. These have included syntactic and morphological criteria, semantic criteria and derivational criteria. Unfortunately, these criteria have not always been applied consistently and this has led to considerable disagreement about the classification of verbs in Māori. In this paper, different accounts of verb classification in Māori are critically examined and it is argued that some of the disagreements can be resolved by acknowledging (a) that words in Māori may be assigned to different word classes in different contexts, and (b) that word classes and sub-classes should be determined on the basis of morphological and syntactic criteria with semantic and derivational information playing a role only in so far as they have observable syntactic and/or morphological consequences.
