Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) rely on long reasoning traces, making inference expensive. While low-bit quantization reduces per-token decoding cost, we show that aggressive 2-bit inference can fail to deliver end-to-end speedup because instability in the generation process inflates total token count.

arXiv:2606. 25519v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantization is widely used to reduce the inference cost of large language models, but its effect on reasoning models is not fully captured by final-answer accuracy or per-token latency.

arXiv:2606. 04115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantizing large language models (LLMs) to low-precision floating-point representations is central to efficient deployment, yet applying a single bit-width uniformly across all layers is sub-optimal in terms of both performance and accuracy.

arXiv:2606. 00206v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) is widely used to deploy large language models efficiently, but its effect on reasoning models is not well understood.

arXiv:2606. 29150v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete flow models have recently shown promising performance on few-step text generation; however, when naively applied to structured reasoning tasks such as Sudoku and Zebra puzzles, they converge confidently to incorrect answers (solving only $\sim$36% of Sudoku puzzles).
