arXiv:2606. 17803v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance by scaling inference-time compute, yet remain fundamentally stateless, discarding the rich, self-produced reasoning traces generated during this process.
arXiv:2606. 07108v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) demonstrate remarkable performance improvements by iteratively reflecting, exploring, and executing complex tasks, yet suffer from inefficiencies due to redundant reasoning, known as "overthinking".
arXiv:2606. 17524v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models show strong reasoning ability, but their internal reasoning process can remain unstable in complex multi-step settings, where early hidden-state errors may propagate to incorrect predictions.

The paper examines a method called Program-of-Layers (PoLar) that allows transformer layers to be dynamically routed rather than processed in a fixed sequence, mirroring the brain’s thalamic routing. Reproductions across five models confirm that skipping, repeating, and combining layer blocks improve performance, with shorter programs for easier inputs and more repeats for harder ones. However, the study could not replicate the claimed advantage of a learned single‑shot router, noting that its top prediction defaults to the standard pass while the top‑k predictions still yield accuracy gains. The authors also analyze the robustness of correction programs, finding them brittle to single edits, and release their code publicly.
