On Local Population-Risk Certificates
arXiv:2606. 19147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper develops local certificates for population-risk increments around a current model.
On Local Population-Risk Certificates
This paper develops local certificates for population-risk increments around a current model. For a local candidate set \(\mathcal D\), the certificate is a two-sided confidence band for \(P({\ell_{θ+v}-\ell_θ})\) over \(v\in\mathcal D\).

Cross-Calibrated Confidence Fields for Local Risk Updates
arXiv:2606. 19147v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can training data be used to compare local updates to the current model, choose an update, and retain valid bounds for the selected update's population-risk change?

A Joint Finite-Sample Certificate for Adaptive Selective Conformal Risk Control
arXiv:2606. 08517v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selective predictors answer on confident inputs and abstain elsewhere; deploying one safely needs a single finite-sample certificate that simultaneously upper-bounds the selected risk, lower-bounds the acceptance probability $\pacc$ above a floor $\pmin$, and lower-bounds the deployment utility.

Private Anytime Selective-Risk Certification for Federated Retrieval-Augmented Generation: Guarantees and Empirical Limits
Selective-risk certificates promise that accepted outputs meet a declared error target. We develop Fed-SRC, a score-agnostic certificate for federated, differentially private, adaptively monitored retrieval-augmented generation.

When Can Conformal Risk Control Certify LLM Outputs? Bounds, Impossibility, and Adaptation for Structured Generation
arXiv:2606. 29054v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) deployed for structured generation (NER, JSON extraction, QA, and classification) lack formal reliability guarantees, and standard heuristic abstention policies miss user-specified risk targets by 7.

Certified Domain Consistency for Multi-Domain Retrieval: Label-Free Per-Domain Contamination Control with Conformal Risk Guarantees
arXiv:2607. 14157v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval over corpora that mix several domains often returns relevant but wrong-domain evidence that ranking metrics miss and that conformal risk control bounds only marginally, under-covering the worst domains.

Publicly-Verifiable Certificates for Statistical Algorithms
arXiv:2607. 15528v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Following Goldwasser, Rothblum, Shafer, and Yehudayoff, who defined a framework for interactive proofs of learning [ITCS'21], we initiate the study of non-interactive proofs of learning.

An Omitted Mode Is a Rare Rule: The Sampling-Verification Danger Law in Continuous Code World Models
arXiv:2608. 17956v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the Code World Model paradigm an LLM synthesizes an executable world model that a classical planner searches, and the model is accepted when it reproduces sampled transitions.

An Omitted Mode Is a Rare Rule: The Sampling-Verification Danger Law in Continuous Code World Models
In the Code World Model paradigm an LLM synthesizes an executable world model that a classical planner searches, and the model is accepted when it reproduces sampled transitions. We ask what that acceptance certifies in continuous control.

Behavioural Signatures of Risk-Sensitive Decision-Making in Large Language Models
arXiv:2607. 10251v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in decision support, it is important to understand whether their choices under uncertainty exhibit stable and interpretable behavioural regularities.
