The paper introduces Reverse‑Turn Policy Optimization (RTPO), a method that restructures multi‑turn agentic reinforcement learning rollouts into sparse reverse trees and updates policies in temporal reverse order. This approach addresses three key instability sources—context mismatch, weak turn‑level credit assignment, and asynchronous policy drift—by aligning each decision with its downstream continuation. Theoretical analysis shows RTPO eliminates context mismatch and drift, reduces credit bias, and converges to recursive optimality, while experiments demonstrate performance gains of 21.50% over trajectory‑level and 10.76% over turn‑level baselines on multi‑turn agentic RL benchmarks.
The paper introduces SORL, a framework that stabilizes off‑policy reinforcement learning for long‑horizon large language model agents. It identifies two key instability sources—token‑level policy granularity mismatches and high‑variance off‑policy updates—and proposes turn‑level importance sampling and clipping‑triggered normalization to align optimization with multi‑turn interactions. Two instantiations, SO‑PPO and SO‑GRPO, are evaluated on open‑domain, multi‑hop, and medical QA benchmarks, as well as on asynchronous RL for mathematical reasoning, showing improved robustness without the need for early stopping or heuristic tuning.
The paper introduces Calibrated Clipping, a dynamic method to align FP8 quantization bounds with high‑precision BF16 distributions, thereby mitigating training instability in full‑pipeline FP8 reinforcement learning for large language models. It identifies that compounded FP8 noise distorts importance ratios, causing entropy surges and garbled outputs. Experiments across GRPO and DAPO algorithms on 8B‑32B models show the technique restores performance to BF16 levels.
The paper introduces OSOL, a method for mitigating higher‑order interference in multi‑domain reinforcement learning. OSOL selects a focus domain each iteration, uses token‑level footprints from the previous checkpoint to rank rebound risk, and applies an adaptively scaled correction to the GRPO update. Experiments on Qwen3‑30B‑A3B show a 5.7% improvement over the best baseline without higher‑order differentiation.

arXiv:2605. 21125v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), a prominent algorithm within the Reinforcement Learning from Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) framework, has achieved strong results in improving the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2607. 16205v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards has emerged as a standard approach for enhancing reasoning in large language models, which typically optimizes the policy by contrasting multiple self generated rollouts.
Reinforcement learning (RL) is becoming increasingly important for post-training large language models (LLMs). Previous RL pipelines for LLMs were mostly synchronous and batch-interleaved, which is inefficient for long-horizon agentic tasks.
