Object Hilbert's third problem
Hilbert's third problem is one of David Hilbert’s famous list of 23 problems, asking whether every polyhedron of a given volume is equidecomposable with any other of the same volume, a question that led to the development of the Dehn invariant and the discovery of counterexamples.

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
Phrase: Hilbert's third problem | Statement: [Dehn invariant, relatedTo, Hilbert's third problem]

Target entity: Hilbert's third problem
Context triple: [Dehn invariant, relatedTo, Hilbert's third problem]
  • A. Hilbert’s twenty-third problem
    Hilbert’s twenty-third problem is one of David Hilbert’s famous list of unsolved problems, focusing on the further development and systematic application of the calculus of variations.
  • B. Dehn invariant
    The Dehn invariant is a mathematical quantity in geometry that helps determine whether two polyhedra are scissors-congruent, playing a key role in the solution of Hilbert’s third problem.
  • C. Minkowski’s theorem on convex sets
    Minkowski’s theorem on convex sets is a fundamental result in convex geometry that characterizes lattice points in convex bodies, underpinning much of the theory of convex polytopes and the geometry of numbers.
  • D. Banach–Tarski paradox
    The Banach–Tarski paradox is a theorem in set-theoretic geometry stating that a solid ball in 3‑dimensional space can be decomposed into finitely many non-measurable pieces and reassembled into two identical copies of the original ball, highlighting counterintuitive consequences of the axiom of choice.
  • E. Hilbert problems
    The Hilbert problems are a famous list of 23 unsolved mathematical problems presented by David Hilbert in 1900 that profoundly influenced the development of 20th-century mathematics.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
