You are probably aware of the fact that careless application of commonly known algebraic rules can lead to absurdities:[EQUATION]The problem behind such jokes is that important functions like integer powers and trigonometric functions have no unique inverses.

Worst and Best Irredundant Sum-of-Products Expressions
In an irredundant sum-of-products expression (ISOP), each product is a prime implicant (PI) and no product can be deleted without changing the function. Among the ISOPs for some function $f$, a worst ISOP (WSOP) is an ISOP with the largest number of PIs ...
How many multiword expressions do people know?
Special issue on multiword expressions: From theory to practice and use, part 1What is a multiword expression (MWE) and how many are there? Mark Liberman gave a great invited talk at ACL-89, titled “How Many Words Do People Know?” where he spent the entire hour questioning the question. Many of the same questions apply to ...
Deterministic parsing of ambiguous grammars
Methods of describing the syntax of programming languages in ways that are more flexible and natural than conventional BNF descriptions are considered. These methods involve the use of ambiguous context-free grammars together with rules to resolve ...
