The paper introduces Reachability Analysis-Informed Reinforcement Learning (RARL) for designing deterministic multi‑impulse interplanetary transfers. RARL uses local first‑order reachability maps to bound velocity perturbations and selects intermediate waypoints, which are then translated into maneuvers via Lambert reconstruction and a terminal two‑impulse solution. Numerical experiments on an Earth‑Mars benchmark show that RARL achieves a mean maneuver cost only 1.72% above a validated convex programming reference and can be trained once to handle a wide range of departure states, achieving 100% feasibility on 10,000 held‑out Monte Carlo departures.
This paper presents a distribution-agnostic robust trajectory-optimization framework based on chance-constrained reinforcement learning. The uncertainty is represented here through initial conditions and process noise, with the only requirement being that it can be sampled.

The paper introduces LP‑BTS, a learning‑guided planning framework for mobile charging in large, dynamic action spaces. It uses a graph proposal policy to narrow candidate stops, a value critic to evaluate leaf nodes, and edge‑budgeted PUCT to compare short simulated futures before action selection. Experiments on a 30‑scenario battery‑life benchmark show LP‑BTS achieving the highest survival and alive‑AUC, outperforming domain‑engineered baselines and heuristic policies.
arXiv:2608. 01130v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A broad range of models face the mismatch where they are updated through trajectory losses but are evaluated by downstream task reward.
arXiv:2608. 07725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Average-reward reinforcement-learning regret is known up to logarithmic factors, but the numerical content of published guarantees is difficult to compare because probability mode, structural parameter, logarithmic normalization, prior information, and planning assumptions differ.
arXiv:2608. 14332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning is promising for autonomous urban driving, but long-horizon goal-directed navigation asks a policy to acquire several competing behaviors at once--reaching a distant goal, tracking a route, avoiding obstacles, obeying signals--and a fixed objective gives no order in which to learn them.
