arXiv:2607. 03333v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM agents are becoming a common interface for research, coding, and question answering, yet their Thought-Action-Observation loop is often serial: the model reasons, emits a tool call, then idles the GPU until the result returns.

arXiv:2606. 31023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hard-constrained sequential decision systems have no certified way to spend the test-time compute of modern AI: executing the multi-step drafts of a learned policy or a frozen LLM forfeits the feasibility guarantee a trusted solver provides, while invoking the solver at every step forfeits the speed the AI offers.

arXiv:2605. 20173v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Production LLM agents combine stochastic model outputs with deterministic software systems, yet the boundary between the two is rarely treated as a first-class architectural object.

arXiv:2608. 02680v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tool-using language-model agents repeatedly rediscover procedures they have already executed, producing traces that mix reusable structure with retries, exploration, accidental ordering, and repeated lookups.

arXiv:2511. 18191v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Time series forecasting drives operational decisions under tight latency budgets, and autoregressive time series foundation models (TSFMs) increasingly deliver the most accurate forecasts.

arXiv:2608. 15089v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon agents can fail even when their underlying models can solve the constituent steps.

arXiv:2607. 13048v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Streaming inference pipelines increasingly pair lightweight fast models with Large Language Models (LLMs) that provide rich semantic understanding at substantial cost.

arXiv:2606. 25097v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates inference by letting a draft model propose tokens for a target model to verify, raising a concrete safety question: at temperature zero, can draft-side behavior leak into safety-scored outputs?
