The paper introduces a controlled testbed to study how goal‑directed persuaders shift stances in networks of large language model agents, using real‑world ego‑network topologies. Experiments across four LLM backbones, five graph structures, and 55 policy statements show that persuasion dynamics depend on topology, competition, topic, and model prior. The study finds that direct exposure predicts stance change, peer relays have measurable influence, and that post‑text analysis alone misses important movement, highlighting the need to evaluate multi‑agent persuasion through trajectory‑level processes, belief probes, exposure provenance, and action logs.

arXiv:2606. 02359v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the remarkable progress of Large Language Model (LLM) based Multi-Agent Systems, most research focuses on optimizing coordination topology while largely underexploring the equally critical problem: how to transmit and optimize messages among agents effectively?

The paper introduces CogMem, a cognitive memory architecture for long‑term dialogue agents that uses a PEC$^2$F graph schema to separate claims, facts, and events. Dialogue turns are incrementally turned into provenance‑aware graph records, consolidated into higher‑level facts, and reconciled into temporally scoped claim views when conflicting updates arise. Retrieval is performed by a rule‑based controller that applies deterministic graph operators—anchoring, traversal, intersection, and evidence grounding—guided by LLM intent parsing, achieving strong performance on multi‑hop, temporal, and knowledge‑update tasks in LoCoMo and LongMemEval benchmarks.

The paper investigates how large language models (LLMs) that generate online articles can create a feedback loop where the content they produce becomes input for subsequent generations. By studying a controlled writing process that varies whether published articles are reused as inputs, the authors find that recirculation increases the presence of complete false claims while reducing explicit endorsement of those claims. The study highlights that selective error persistence depends on the interplay between claim content, expressed stance, and downstream reuse, and that interventions can preserve correct content while limiting error reproduction.

The paper investigates the use of Multi-Agent Debate (MAD) for creative generation tasks such as narrative writing and scientific ideation. It finds that MAD’s convergence-driven design suppresses output diversity across independent runs, creating a trade-off with creative tasks. To address this, the authors propose Creative-MAD, which introduces Cognitive Lens Assignment and Embedding-based Peer Selection to preserve agent divergence, and demonstrate that it improves lexical and semantic diversity while maintaining quality.

Collective intelligence research treats disagreement as evidence of epistemic diversity: if agents express different views, the group should retain capacity to revise. In LLM collectives this proxy can break: agents can produce diverse-looking arguments while preserving the same conclusion.
LongHarness is a model‑agnostic harness that explicitly manages the interaction between acquired evidence and evolving conclusions for long‑context reasoning over corpora larger than a model’s context window. Its Evidence‑Conclusion Coevolution mechanism uses unresolved conclusions to steer evidence retrieval, while new evidence refines those conclusions, and its Evidence Lifecycle Management keeps evidence current and traceable. Evaluations on OfficeQA Pro, AA‑LCR, and LongBench v2 show substantial performance gains over direct reasoning and state‑of‑the‑art agent harnesses, with GLM‑5.3‑Flash exact match improving from 15.8% to 60.2% on V1 and from 4.4% to 61.1% on V2.
