{'hari prasad chaurasia': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'amartya sen': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'above pairs': [0, 0, 3, 4], 'kapila vatsyayan': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'eminent person': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'sculptor': [1, 0, 1, 1], 'economist': [1, 1, 1, 2]}

The given question provides three pairs of eminent persons and their well-known fields. We need to determine which pair is correctly matched.

1. Amartya Sen - Economist: This pair is correctly matched. Amartya Sen is a renowned economist who has made significant contributions to the field of welfare economics and development economics.

2. Kapila Vatsyayan - Sculptor: This pair is not correctly matched. Kapila Vatsyayan is not known as a sculptor. She is a notable Indian scholar, dancer, and art historian.

3. Hari Prasad Chaurasia - Novelist: This pair is also not correctly matched. Hari Prasad Chaurasia is not known as a novelist. He is a renowned flutist and Indian classical musician.

So, only pair 1 (Amartya Sen - Economist) is correctly matched. Therefore, the correct answer is option 1 - 1 only.
