Abstract

In (Kanazawa, 1998) it was shown that rigid Classical Categorial Grammars are learnable (in the sense of (Gold, 1967)) from strings. Surprisingly there are recent negative results for, among others, rigid associative Lambek (L) grammars.In this paper the non-learnability of the class of rigid grammars in LP (Associative-Commutative Lambek calculus) and LPø (same, but allowing the empty sequent in derivations) will be shown.
