Hierarchical Continuous Diffusion Language Models (HC‑DLM) combine discrete token generation with a continuous latent trajectory in a single denoising process, addressing the independence bottleneck of parallel decoding in discrete diffusion models. The training objective is derived from a variational bound on token likelihood, and the latent state is the sole persistent generative element, with tokens read out and fed back at each step. Experiments on Sudoku, Countdown, and LM1B show HC‑DLM outperforming both discrete and continuous diffusion baselines in puzzle accuracy and generative perplexity.
