DEONTICBENCH is a new benchmark of 6,232 deontic reasoning tasks from U.S. legal domains where frontier LLMs reach only ~45% accuracy and symbolic Prolog assistance plus RL training still fail to solve tasks reliably.

Across 9 VLMs and 9,000 pairs, 72.9% of cases show Visual Sycophancy (split beliefs: vision preserved, wrong answer decoded), zero show robust refusal, and scale worsens the pattern while cutting language shortcuts.
ARS shapes reasoning trace representations by clustering states that produce consistent answers and separating those that produce inconsistent ones via latent perturbations, improving plug-and-play hallucination detection without human annotations.
ConsisGuard is a consistency-aware framework that applies Policy-to-Decision Trajectory Distillation and Functional Coupling Alignment to improve policy execution consistency in reasoning-based LLM guardrails on harmfulness detection tasks.
A 16-factor structured prompt framework strengthens CoT reasoning in LLMs for security analysis, yielding up to 40% reasoning gains in smaller models and stable accuracy improvements validated by human raters with Cohen's k > 0.80.
The paper unifies perspectives on Long CoT in reasoning LLMs by introducing a taxonomy, detailing characteristics of deep reasoning and reflection, and discussing emergence phenomena and future directions.
