arXiv:2607. 19405v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The CoTFormer architecture formalizes Chain-of-Thought as a form of recurrent latent computation, preserving intermediate states as attendable representations to mimic explicit reasoning traces.
arXiv:2607. 15178v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer reasoning is limited by autoregressive decoding, which repeat edly compresses rich hidden computation through token space and makes it difficult for intermediate reasoning states to persist across time.
arXiv:2607. 25915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Complex structured reasoning tasks often require additional computation, yet current language models obtain it mainly by increasing parameter scale or by serializing intermediate steps as chain-of-thought (CoT) tokens.
arXiv:2606. 31779v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models typically reason via explicit chain-of-thought (CoT), generating intermediate steps token-by-token.
arXiv:2608. 08113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has become the dominant paradigm for eliciting reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs), yet it creates substantial computational overhead by forcing models to externalize intermediate reasoning steps as discrete tokens.
arXiv:2604. 07822v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study implicit reasoning, i.
arXiv:2606. 16360v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting improves reasoning in large language models (LLMs) by externalizing intermediate computation as discrete text tokens, but this textual interface also introduces redundancy and inference overhead.
arXiv:2608. 17981v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We describe an inference-time architectural enhancement for off-the-shelf foundation models that markedly reduces perplexity and boosts accuracy across generation and reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2511. 16886v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recently, small models with latent recursion have obtained promising results on complex reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2607. 11875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a theoretical framework to explain the emergence of inductive reasoning abilities in Transformer language models.
We present a theoretical framework to explain the emergence of inductive reasoning abilities in Transformer language models. While previous works on Transformer learning dynamics have so far been mostly tied to specific tasks, we study a generalized class of inductive tasks that unifies several synthetic tasks known in the literature, including in-context n-grams and multi-hop reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 02994v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: ReAct-style LLM agents often rediscover the same reasoning routines across problems, yet leave those routines trapped in transient scratchpads.
arXiv:2606. 07108v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) demonstrate remarkable performance improvements by iteratively reflecting, exploring, and executing complex tasks, yet suffer from inefficiencies due to redundant reasoning, known as "overthinking".
