✓ Portable graph bundle live · download bundle · merged state

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Evaluating 14 SOTA LLMs, we observe consistent performance drops with larger decline when semantic perturbations are coupled with symbolic/plus variations (average drop rate 28% in maximum strictness configuration of GSM-SEM).

C2weakest assumption

That modifications to entities, attributes, and relationships can be constrained to alter underlying facts and require recomputation while still preserving the original calculations, answer, and approximate problem difficulty.

C3one line summary

GSM-SEM generates reusable, stochastic semantic variants of math reasoning benchmarks that alter underlying facts but preserve answers, producing larger LLM performance drops than prior surface-level variants.
