NER
Named-entity recognition
gpt-5-mini
Instruction
Given a phrase, classify it is english named entity (e.g., persons, organizations, works of art) in Latin script, or not (e.g., literals, dates, URLs, verbose phrases). For disambiguation, the statement where the phrase occurs as object is also given. Please return a JSON object with `phrase` (string, the phrase being analyzed) and `is_ne` (boolean, indicating whether the phrase is a Named Entity).
Input

-
A.
Grothendieck–Ogg–Shafarevich formula
The Grothendieck–Ogg–Shafarevich formula is a result in arithmetic geometry that relates the Euler characteristic of an ℓ-adic sheaf on a curve over a finite field to local invariants such as conductors and ramification data.
-
B.
Lefschetz
Lefschetz is a surname most notably associated with Solomon Lefschetz, a pioneering mathematician in algebraic topology and geometry.
-
C.
Hodge–Riemann bilinear relations
The Hodge–Riemann bilinear relations are fundamental positivity and orthogonality conditions on the intersection form in Hodge theory that underpin results such as the hard Lefschetz theorem and the Hodge index theorem.
-
D.
Hodge decomposition
Hodge decomposition is a fundamental result in differential geometry and Hodge theory that expresses differential forms on a Riemannian manifold uniquely as sums of exact, co-exact, and harmonic components.
-
E.
Conway–Norton collaboration
The Conway–Norton collaboration was a joint mathematical effort, led by John Conway and Simon Norton, that played a key role in developing the theory of monstrous moonshine and the construction of the Monster group.
- F. None of above. chosen

NEDg
Description generation
gpt-5.1
Instruction
Generate a one-sentence description of the target entity. You are given a context triple in the form (subject, predicate, object), where the object is the target entity. # Instructions Use the triple to infer relevant information about the entity. Describe the entity based on what is most defining, well-known. Avoid repeating the information from the triple, unless really essential. # Response Format Return only the sentence: "Description: [one-sentence description of the target entity]"
Input
