arXiv:2607. 20500v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) perform strongly on well-specified reasoning tasks with a feasible answer.
Large Language Models fail at implicit multi-hop reasoning: a model answers "When was $X$ born? " and "Who is $Y$'s closest friend?
arXiv:2505. 20161v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective generalization in language models depends critically on the diversity of their training data.
arXiv:2604. 11912v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While next-token prediction (NTP) has been the standard objective for training language models, it often struggles to capture global structure in reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2606. 05181v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Natural Language Inference (NLI) is a fundamental task in natural language understanding that requires determining the logical relationship between a premise and a hypothesis.
We present a theoretical framework to explain the emergence of inductive reasoning abilities in Transformer language models. While previous works on Transformer learning dynamics have so far been mostly tied to specific tasks, we study a generalized class of inductive tasks that unifies several synthetic tasks known in the literature, including in-context n-grams and multi-hop reasoning.

arXiv:2606. 14142v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly adopted as backbones for Generative Recommendation (GR), promising access to pretrained world knowledge.
arXiv:2602. 02470v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoregressive large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success in many complex tasks, yet they can still fail in very simple logical reasoning such as the "reversal curse" -- when trained on forward knowledge data of the form "$A \rightarrow B$" (e.
arXiv:2607. 01585v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicate invention (PI), the creation of new predicates to extend the hypothesis space, remains a critical bottleneck in Inductive Logic Programming (ILP).
