The paper introduces InFlowOp, a label‑free optimization framework that assigns costs to each decision in a multi‑agent workflow, balancing agent competence against execution time. It determines task granularity and agent assignment before execution and corrects faults during execution using the same cost metric. The authors also present Braid, a benchmark for multi‑agent coordination, and show that InFlowOp outperforms single‑agent baselines by up to 11.97% across various domains.

The paper presents a theoretical analysis of the Rolling‑Horizon Collision Resolution (RHCR) framework for Lifelong Multi‑Agent Path Finding (L‑MAPF), proving its near‑optimality in a discounted MDP setting. Building on this, the authors introduce Group Decentralized RHCR (GD‑RHCR), which partitions agents via a transitive communication scheme and plans each partition in parallel, achieving similar optimality guarantees while reducing per‑plan computational cost. Experiments across various maps demonstrate that GD‑RHCR scales to higher agent counts with high throughput and lower cost compared to vanilla RHCR.

The paper introduces Pivot-and-Station Multi-Agent Path Finding (PS‑MAPF), a variant of MAPF where a subset of agents must visit interchangeable pivots before all agents occupy anonymous stations. It provides a full solvability characterization: every instance on a 2‑edge‑connected graph is solvable, and for arbitrary connected graphs a structural effective‑distance measure relative to unoccupied vertices gives a necessary and sufficient condition. The authors prove that minimizing station‑makespan or station‑flowtime is NP‑hard even with a single pivot, and present three algorithms—a complete baseline, a SAT‑based optimal solver, and Pivot‑Prioritized Planning (PPP), which solves 74‑89% of benchmark instances with significantly lower makespan and flowtime than the baseline.

arXiv:2606. 16478v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) remain limited in multi-agent planning because independently generated plans can create coordination failures such as spatial collisions, resource contention, and temporal deadlocks.
