arXiv:2607. 21407v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The boundary and divertor plasma govern how a tokamak exhausts power and particles, setting heat fluxes, target conditions, and the onset of detachment.

arXiv:2606. 07550v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Offline reinforcement learning (RL) offers a promising route for developing plasma controllers from historical tokamak data, since online trial-and-error on real devices is costly and risky.

arXiv:2607. 29209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) broadcasts a single response-level reward to every token, while on-policy distillation (OPD) scores each token against a stronger teacher for a dense advantage but caps performance at teacher quality and discourages exploration beyond it.

arXiv:2609. 03241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A reasoning model can improve from its own on-policy experience, but this inner loop is fragile: terminal verifiers provide reliable yet sparse supervision, while dense same-model guidance can reinforce false confidence or overconcentrate learning on a narrow solution mode.

Fast and reliable plasma equilibrium prediction is essential for real-time tokamak operation and control, but conventional Grad-Shafranov (GS) solvers are often too costly for real-time deployment. We...
The paper introduces Network Feasibility Geometry Reinforcement Learning (NFG‑RL), a method that enforces multi‑layer network constraints—such as interference, power‑rate coupling, flow conservation, service chains, capacity, latency, and reliability—by transporting a proto‑policy through a differentiable feasibility map. By compiling heterogeneous constraints into typed residual blocks and using a variational transport operator, NFG‑RL ensures almost‑sure feasible execution and shapes exploration and gradients to respect active constraints. Experiments on two wireless‑edge surrogate environments show that NFG‑RL boosts feasible utility by 37.5–41.5 %, cuts raw‑action violations by 48.5–60.8 %, and reduces P99 delay by 57.0–75.5 % compared to leading baselines.
