π-augmented pregroups and applications to linguistics

Abstract

We enrich pregroups with a mapping which allows us to locally apply precyclic permutations to designated substrings. We prove a normalisation theorem for such algebraic structures and briefly formalise some known applications of pregroups to the analysis of clitic pronouns in certain natural languages.
