Is 'Hope' a person or an idea? A pilot benchmark for NER: comparing traditional NLP tools and large language models on ambiguous entities
This pilot study presents a small-scale but carefully annotated benchmark of Named Entity Recognition (NER) performance across six systems: three non-LLM NLP tools (NLTK, spaCy, Stanza) and three general-purpose large language models (LLMs: Gemini-1.5-flash, DeepSeek-V3, Qwen-3-4B). The dataset contains 119 tokens covering five entity types (PERSON, LOCATION, ORGANIZATION, DATE, TIME). We evaluated each system's output against the manually annotated gold standard dataset using F1-score. The res…

Well-posedness and regularity theory for the fractional diffusion-wave equation in Lebesgue spaces
This paper is dedicated to the study of the semilinear fractional diffusion-wave equation. We provide estimates on the families of linear operators related to the problem in the fractional power scale associated with the Laplace operator. Furthermore, we analyze the existence and uniqueness of local mild solutions and their possible continuation to a maximal interval of existence. We also consider the issue of spatial regularity and continuous dependence with respect to initial data.

NuLattice: Ab initio computations of atomic nuclei on lattices
We introduce NuLattice, a Python software package for ab initio computations of atomic nuclei on lattices. The computational tools consist of Hartree Fock, the coupled cluster method, the in-medium similarity renormalization group, and full configuration interaction. At present, the employed interactions are from pion-less effective field theory at leading order and consist of two-body and three-body contacts. We present results for light nuclei $^{2}$H, $^{3,4}$He, $^{8}$Be, $^{12}$C, and $^{1…
