Example	Instruction stream (clickable)	Notes
(14a) the book that I read (14c) the book I read	[book, d_rel, read, 'v*', [i, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	Two derivations. d_rel has iRel but cannot check book's uD feature. c_rel has uT and uRel, and heads a Local Extent (LE). Two ways to satisfy c_rel using Pesetsky and Torrego (2001): (1) T to edge of c_rel => that (2) Nom Case-marked I to edge of c_rel => empty At the LE boundary, book (uD) is restacked. TOS book merges with c_relP. book labels (head merging with non-head). Stream the merges with SO headed by book.
(14b) the book which I read *the book which that I read	[book, which_rel, read, 'v*', [i, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	Single derivation. which_rel has iRel. which_rel can check uT but not uD feature. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of which_rel book will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, book (uD) is restacked. book merges with c_relP, then with the.
(16a) the man to whom I talked the man whom I talked to *the man whom that I talked to	[man, who_rel, to, talk, 'v*', [i, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	Two derivations. who_rel has iRel. who_rel can check uT but not uD feature. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of who_rel man will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, man (uD) is restacked. man merges with c_relP, then with the. Optional pied-piping of verb particle to.
(16b) The man to that I talked (16c) The man to I talked The man I talked to The man that I talked to	[man, d_rel, to, talk, 'v*', [i, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	Two derivations. d_rel has iRel but cannot check man's uD feature. c_rel has uT and uRel, and heads a LE. Two ways to satisfy c_rel using Pesetsky and Torrego (2001): (1) T to edge of c_rel => that (2) Nom Case-marked I to edge of c_rel => empty At the LE boundary, man (uD) is restacked. TOS man merges with c_relP. man labels (head merging with non-head). Stream the merges with SO headed by man. [Note: no pied-piping of verb particle to with d_rel-man. [An] EC [Empty Category] disallows pied-piping (Chomsky, 2001:28)]
(22) The man who John saw *The man who that John saw	[man, who_rel, see, 'v*', [john, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	One derivation. who_rel has iRel. who_rel can check uT but not uD feature. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of who_rel man will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, man (uD) is restacked. man merges with c_relP, then with the.
(29) The man who loves Mary *The man who that loves Mary	[mary, d, love, 'v*', [man, who_rel], 'T', c_rel, the]	One derivation. who_rel has iRel. who_rel can check uT but not uD feature. The subject who_rel-man is formed in a substream. man (uD) will be initially stacked in the substream and transferred back to the main stream. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of who_rel man will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, man (uD) is restacked. man merges with c_relP, then with the. [Note: under machine parameter setting substream(subsume_ss), main stream subject who-man (uCase) will subsume man (uD) from a substream on the stack. To prevent this, tentatively we implement the policy of letting heads through.]
(35) The boy *(that) called Mary	[mary, d, call, 'v*', [boy, d_rel], 'Tpast', c_rel, the]	d_rel has iRel but cannot check man's uD feature. c_rel has uT and uRel, and heads a LE. Assume d_rel cannot check uT, i.e. d_rel-boy, despite getting nom Case, fails to satisfy uT on c_rel. Then c_rel's uT can only be satisfied by moving T to the edge of c_rel => that.
Extra test cases
(x1) What I read *What that I read	[pro_n, what_rel, read, 'v*', [i, d], 'Tpast', c_rel, d]	Headless relative. One derivation. Assume what is what_rel + pro_n (empty pronominal). what_rel has iRel. what_rel can check uT but not uD feature. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of what_rel pro_n will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, pro_n (uD) is restacked. pro_n merges with c_relP, then with d.
(x2) What annoys John *What that annoys John	[john, d, annoy, 'v*', [pro_n, what_rel], 'T', c_rel, d]	Headless relative. One derivation. Assume what is what_rel + pro_n (empty pronominal). what_rel has iRel. what_rel can check uT but not uD feature. c_rel heads a LE, and has uT and uRel. Internal merge of what_rel pro_n will satisfy both uT and uRel on c_rel. (By economy, T to C is not available.) At the LE boundary, pro_n (uD) is restacked. pro_n merges with c_relP, then with d.

Step 35.

Merge [the!case!N] and [man!D[man!D][c_rel[to..][c_rel..]]]

Label from [the!case!N] (syntactic head merging with a non-head)

Inherit interpretable feature(s) [f(phi,[3,sg,n])] from [man!D[man!D][c_rel[to..][c_rel..]]]

[the!case!N] values D on [man!D[man!D][c_rel[to..][c_rel..]]]

[man[man][c_rel[to..][c_rel..]]] values N on [the!case!N]

Parse:

Spell-out:

the man to whom I -ed(sg) talk (after morpheme realization)

the man to whom I talk -ed(sg) (after affix-hop)

the man to whom I talk -ed(sg) (after morpheme realization, stage 2)

the man to whom I talked
