Deciding DFA primality is NP-hard, established by reduction from propositional satisfiability using a characterization of primality for a relevant class of automata.
Introduces the binning semiring and causal graphical models to show that correlational evaluation of learnability in formal language tasks leads to incorrect conclusions from confounders.
CyberEvolver introduces a four-layer self-evolving agent architecture with trace-to-diagnosis and population beam search that raises seed agent success rates by 13.6% on CTF, exploitation, and penetration tasks across four LLMs.
Local attention in fixed-precision transformers introduces a second past operator in linear temporal logic, strictly increasing expressivity over global attention alone, with hybrids being most expressive.
TouchPort collapses the multi-stage process of discovering, consenting to, and syncing mixed reality encounters into one embodied handshake-and-pull gesture.
A compiler automatically derives pruning and inclusion conditions for tree traversals, enabling generated filters, reductions, and non-equijoins that match expert-written code.
Local retail concentration increased almost as much as national concentration from 1992 to 2012, mainly from multi-market firm expansion, and accounts for one-quarter to one-third of the rise in retail gross margins.
Introduces Λ-lr-QAOA and piecewise-ramp QAOA that promote penalty schedules to variational parameters and use a feasibility-driven loss on budget-constrained MWIS satellite planning instances.
Enforcing semilinearity via local stencil-scale normalization and training on polynomial profiles produces stable, generalizable neural advection schemes with a new flux limiter that improves shape preservation over OSTVD3.
Boundary mixed steady states in networked evolutionary games are characterized by boundary Nash equilibria in two-strategy cases and are generically unstable unless degenerate due to interaction structure among mixed players.
FLaG is a frequency-domain module using FFT, latent queries, and gating that improves token aggregation and shows gains on ESM2 AMP prediction and CIFAR-100 image classification while staying competitive on text tasks.
Agentic Redux claims provably correct LLM agent executions on suitable domains via typed lambda calculus with full decision logging, demonstrated on healthcare compliance and security disclosure with supporting code.
Variational free-energy descent under exponential-family posteriors and priors recovers predictive-coding dynamics up to the second posterior cumulant, with local learning rules and nonlinear heterogeneous activations.
TRACER combines a controller-regret layer using regret matching for speak/skip decisions with a generation-credit layer using GSPO rewards to enable learned collaboration in multi-LLM reasoning.
EnactToM is an evolving benchmark of embodied multi-agent tasks that tests functional Theory of Mind by requiring agents to act optimally on implicit beliefs in partially observable 3D environments.
