Summary/Abstract: An attempt is made to find formal regularities that characterize coherent discourse as opposed to a random accumulation of sentences. A class of texts is specified in which coherence is manifested in the first place by the fact that neighboring sentences contain identical semantic elements. It is asserted that the description of regularities governing the formation of such texts can be reduced to the description of limitations imposed on the choice of the "initial name" in all sentences of the text except the first one. A relation of domination is defined between the. names from different sentences. Several types of such relation are described which correspond to different types of connection between sentences in discourse.
