The Equilibrium Is the Initialization: Lazy Identity Collapse in Physics-Structured Deep Equilibrium Reasoning

Deep equilibrium models promise input-adaptive implicit computation: harder problems should demand more solver iterations, and the solved equilibrium should encode the result of genuine iterative inference. We report a cautionary study of a port-Hamiltonian DEQ with a learned initialization on two reasoning tasks -- ProofWriter entailment over frozen DeBERTa embeddings and a BFS-verified graph-reachability benchmark -- in which the implicit computation is a silent no-op.

Deep-Unfolded Coordination

arXiv:2606. 19920v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Distributed optimization is a highly scalable and structurally transparent technique to solve multi-agent robotics problems; however, such methods often suffer from the need for highly-specialized, problem-specific hyperparameter tunings.

G-ReAct: Graph-Guided Deep Search via Structure-State Co-Evolution

G-ReAct is a reasoning framework that frames deep search as state evolution over a fixed-topology query graph, enabling explicit tracking of search progress and constraint preservation. It generates high-quality trajectories for fine-tuning and provides structured guidance during inference without extra fine-tuning. Experiments show that with only 1.9K generated trajectories, a Qwen3 model achieves strong accuracy on BrowseComp-ZH and XBench, outperforming larger open-source baselines, and consistently improves existing LLMs on deep-search tasks.

Certified Inference and Training for Deep Equilibrium Networks: A Continuation Framework with Polynomial Complexity Guarantees

The paper introduces a certified continuation framework for computing and training deep equilibrium networks (DEQs). It uses compact input homotopy and a rounded Newton tracker for inference, and augments local-plus-low-rank recurrence with programmable dormant bilinear rank‑one channels for training. The approach guarantees polynomial‑time bit complexity, with certified bounds on inference and training error budgets.

Thinking with Looped Flows

The paper introduces looped flows, a new approach that trains looped models using local denoising objectives to overcome the difficulty of training early updates for future ones. By enforcing temporal association through progressively decreasing noise levels and shared noise, the method encourages recurrent states to transfer useful computation over time. Inference is framed as integrating the velocity of a probability flow parameterized by the learned denoiser, allowing the model to solve harder problems by allocating more computation and producing multiple valid predictions from different initial noise samples. Across six reasoning benchmarks, looped flows outperform prior state‑of‑the‑art looped models, achieving 58.8% accuracy on ARC‑AGI‑1 and 12.2% on ARC‑AGI‑2.

Curvature-Adaptive Consistency Flow Matching: Autonomous Trajectory Optimization via Reinforcement Learning

Consistency distillation has significantly accelerated the inference of diffusion models. In this work, we reveal an intriguing asymmetry: while Logit-Normal sampling priors are highly efficacious for standard iterative generation, consistency distillation exhibits a distinctly different difficulty profile (e.
