Abstract
We propose a formal representation of meaning decomposition in the framework of the Meaning-Text Unification Grammar. The proposed technique aims at offering a better integration of such semantic decompositions into a global model of the language. It relies on the saturation of polarities to control the construction of decomposed respresentations as well as their mapping to the syntactic trees that express them. The proposed formalism is discussed from the viewpoint of generation, but it applies to analysis as well.
