Making AI-Assisted Claims Independently Challengeable: Publication Authority and a Protocol for Falsifiable Publication Records

The paper introduces Publication Authority, a single-use, non-transferable capability that ensures AI-assisted claims can be independently challenged by providing a machine-readable, falsifiable publication record. It presents the PAC-2026 protocol, evaluates its fourth bounded semantic freeze (SF-4), and demonstrates through extensive modeling that the system enforces strict obligations on evidence, authorization, and lifecycle continuity. The study confirms internal coherence, bounded safety, and fault sensitivity, though it does not address factual truth or field efficacy.

BadScientist: Can a Research Agent Write Convincing but Unsound Papers that Fool LLM Reviewers?

arXiv:2510. 18003v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The convergence of LLM-powered research assistants and AI-based peer review systems creates a critical vulnerability: fully automated publication loops where AI-generated research is evaluated by AI reviewers without human oversight.

Cogentic: Multi-Agent Orchestration for Automated Proof Discovery

Cogentic is a multi‑agent system designed to automate proof discovery for open research problems. It uses an iterative prove‑verify loop where an orchestrator assigns independent provers to different proof directions, verifies their outputs with specialized components, and records confirmed intermediate results in a persistent ledger for future rounds. Built on Gemini, Cogentic has produced novel results on five open problems in online learning, auction theory, and mechanism design, each verified by domain experts and detailed in companion papers.

A Scalable Trust Discovery Architecture for the Internet of Agents

The paper proposes a scalable trust discovery architecture for the Internet of Agents, featuring a three‑layer hierarchical design: Agent Root for registry governance, Agent Registry for registration and metadata, and Agent Resolver for capability discovery. It introduces a registry‑suffix‑anchored composite identity scheme and a dual‑certificate, multi‑level authentication mechanism to strengthen agent identity trust. Prototype evaluation shows low latency (58 ms registration, 25 ms discovery) and high throughput (over 19,000 registrations and 29,000 discoveries per second).
