How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T7890772 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.
Target entity: Zur Theorie der nichtlinearen Wellen Context triple: [Klaus Hasselmann, thesisTitle, Zur Theorie der nichtlinearen Wellen]
-
A.
Leçons sur la propagation des ondes et les équations de l’hydrodynamique
*Leçons sur la propagation des ondes et les équations de l’hydrodynamique* is a classic mathematical treatise by Jacques Hadamard that develops the theory of wave propagation and its connection to the partial differential equations governing fluid motion.
-
B.
Sommerfeld–Brillouin precursor theory
Sommerfeld–Brillouin precursor theory is a classical electromagnetic wave theory that explains how transient signal fronts (precursors) propagate through dispersive media before the main wave arrives.
-
C.
Korteweg–De Vries equation
The Korteweg–De Vries equation is a fundamental nonlinear partial differential equation that models shallow water waves and solitons, playing a central role in the theory of integrable systems.
-
D.
Kolmogorov spectrum of turbulence
The Kolmogorov spectrum of turbulence is a fundamental theory in fluid dynamics that predicts how kinetic energy is distributed across different scales in fully developed turbulent flow, most famously yielding the −5/3 power law for the inertial subrange.
-
E.
Painlevé–Kruskal theorem
The Painlevé–Kruskal theorem is a result in the theory of nonlinear differential equations that characterizes integrability through the analytic structure of their solutions, particularly via the Painlevé property.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
