User requests serve as research specifications for deep research agents, shaping what evidence to seek and how to synthesize it. In personalized deep research, these specifications must additionally reflect user goals, constraints, preferences, and evaluation criteria.
arXiv:2606. 18191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep research (DR) systems are increasingly used for complex information-seeking tasks, but existing works mainly focus on generating reports and summaries.

arXiv:2608. 08446v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized generation systems retrieve user history by request--memory relevance and inject it into the model context.
By Jing Wang, Zhu Wang, Yifan Guo, Yulong Yang, Yunji Liang
arXiv:2606. 28349v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context reasoning requires models to access, retrieve, and integrate evidence scattered across documents, dialogues, and accumulated interaction histories.

arXiv:2608. 08389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon research agents solve open-ended tasks through iterative retrieval, aggregation, and synthesis, but context grows rapidly while the marginal value of additional evidence often declines.

arXiv:2608. 01269v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Hierarchical Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (GraphRAG) organizes corpus knowledge at multiple levels of granularity, yet fixed context construction may fail to translate these multi-resolution representations into a context suited to the current query.
By Yongfeng Huang, Yuren Lai, Ruiying Chen, Haoyu Huang, Mingming Zhao, James Cheng
arXiv:2608. 16185v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM agents increasingly answer questions over dynamic raw-document collections, where files may change before preprocessing, and relevant evidence (spans, sections, pages, or tables) is query-dependent.
By Xingjun Wang, Gongsheng Li, Qi Fan, Yunlin Mao, Luyan Su, Yingda Chen
Large Language Models (LLMs) have become increasingly adopted in daily applications, with deep research standing out as a particularly important capability. Unlike traditional question-answering (QA) tasks, deep research report generation lacks definitive ground-truth, making reward design inherently unverifiable and limiting effective reinforcement learning.
