Latent Collaboration in Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv:2511. 20639v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multi-agent systems (MAS) extend large language models (LLMs) from independent single-model reasoning to coordinative system-level intelligence.

Dual Latent Memory for Visual Multi-agent System

arXiv:2602. 00471v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Visual Multi-Agent Systems (VMAS) promise to enhance comprehensive abilities through inter-agent collaboration, empirical evidence reveals a counter-intuitive "scaling wall": increasing agent turns often degrades performance while exponentially inflating token costs.

Dual-Cache Latent Space Communication between Heterogeneous Language Models

The paper introduces XKV, a latent protocol that enables efficient communication between heterogeneous language models by translating a sharer's key‑value cache into a receiver's context. XKV overcomes limitations of prior methods by jointly pooling both caches, reconciling differing layer depths, and allowing each receiver position to retrieve its own residual in native KV geometry. Across 45 dataset‑model pairings, XKV outperforms previous protocols and text communication while using fewer parameters and achieving faster translation times.

Recursive Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv:2604. 25917v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recursive or looped language models have recently emerged as a new scaling axis by iteratively refining the same model computation over latent states to deepen reasoning.

Adaptive Latent Agentic Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 02871v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large reasoning models improve performance by generating extended chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, but this behavior becomes inefficient when applied to LLM agents.
