<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Domain''' is in [[checking theory]] the domain of a [[head]] A is the set of [[node]]s contained in [[Max(A)]] that are distinct from and do not [[contain]] A.<br />
<br />
=== Example ===<br />
<br />
in (i) the domain of X (a head) is the set of nodes UP, ZP, WP, YP, and H and whatever these categories dominate. XP<sub>1</sub>, XP<sub>2</sub>, X', X<sub>1</sub> and X<sub>2</sub> are not included in the domain of X, since each of these nodes contain X, and X is not distinct from X.<br />
