arXiv:2606. 25987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) attain remarkable surface fluency on code, yet they neither formally guarantee the syntactic validity of their output nor leverage the hierarchical structure defining the target language.

arXiv:2603. 03305v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate executable outputs, JSON objects, and API calls, where a single syntax error can make the output unusable.

arXiv:2607. 11951v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can write SQL, but enterprise deployment demands more than plausible text: outputs must be syntactically valid, must respect per-role and per-schema policy, must carry provable (not best-effort) guarantees, must not slow down as generations grow, and must leave a compliance-grade record of every decision.

arXiv:2606. 00722v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Controlling language model outputs is essential for ensuring structural validity, reliability, and downstream usability, and diffusion language models are no exception.

arXiv:2608. 06111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Positional embeddings (PE) in Transformers encode token distance and order but are largely agnostic to \textit{syntactic structure}.

arXiv:2608. 13925v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) accelerate language generation by predicting multiple masks in a single forward pass.

arXiv:2608. 05493v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language models (LMs) are increasingly used to interact with external services via programs written in domain-specific languages (DSLs).

arXiv:2603. 18482v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Standard decoding strategies for text generation, including top-$k$, nucleus sampling, and contrastive search, select tokens based on likelihood, restricting outputs to high-probability regions.

arXiv:2606. 12232v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Masked diffusion language models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a competitive alternative to autoregressive language models, with the promise of faster inference via parallel token generation.

arXiv:2606. 05486v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt ambiguity is a common source of failure in large language models, but is difficult to localize because it is a latent property of the prompt, while existing attribution methods are designed to explain observable outputs such as logits or generated tokens.

arXiv:2508. 10875v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) are rapidly emerging as a powerful and promising alternative to the dominant autoregressive (AR) paradigm.

arXiv:2607. 18357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models now write a growing share of the world's code, increasingly inside agents and serving systems that compile, execute, or dispatch generated code without line-by-line review.
