In general, empty categories are treated the same way as overt ones
except that they do not contain lexical material. In addition, missing
material is sometimes added in curly brackets and labelled CODE to make
the structure more transparent. This is most often done in connection
with elision in
comparative clauses.
Empty subjects
There are four types of empty subjects:
Subjects elided under conjunction (NP-SBJ *con*)
Subjects elided under conjunction contain *con*. Subjects are
obligatory in most types of clauses in our system, and so elided
subjects are indicated both in main clause tokens and in conjoined
subordinate clauses. The empty subject of a matrix clause must be
coreferential with the subject of the previous token in order to be
treated as *con* (the clause needn't contain an overt
CONJ); otherwise, it is treated as *pro*. In
principle, elided objects could be treated analogously, but they aren't,
since too many cases are too difficult to decide.

Empty expletive subjects (NP-SBJ *exp*)
Empty expletives contain *exp*. These are always subjects and
occur in three constructions:
Impersonal constructions

verbs.

subject. See Empty

The arbitrary subject of an infinitive governed by an ECM verb is labelled
*arb*.

Not all instances of movement are explicitly indicated. In particular, we do not distinguish raising (including the HE IS TO COME construction) from subject control, and infinitive clauses ordinarily do not contain subject traces. See Infinitives for details.
In general, only phrases undergo movement. Stylistic fronting of quantifiers is treated as phrasal. The remaining few exceptions to this rule are discussed elsewhere:

In structures that are ambiguous between an analysis with pied piping and one without, the default is the analysis without pied piping. See below for examples. |
In pied-piping contexts, embedded wh- constituents recursively project a wh- feature all the way up to the phrase in Spec(CP). In exceptional cases, this results in the categories WIP (and even WCP). Where a wh- phrase is not associated with a trace (as is possible in pied-piping contexts, a dash tag is exceptionally added to the wh- phrase's label.

Pied piping is assumed only if no other analysis is possible; in particular, if a token can be treated as involving simple extraction from an adjunct, that analysis is the default.
