MOC: Multi-Order Communication in LLM-based Multi-Agent Systems

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?

Do We Need Complex Topology Control? Distinct-Peer Random Routing Improves Cost-Efficiency in Sparse Multi-Agent Debate

The paper investigates whether complex communication topologies are necessary for effective multi‑agent debate (MAD) among large language models. It demonstrates that a simple random-without-replacement routing policy—where each agent debates with two newly sampled peers each round—consistently improves the accuracy‑cost trade‑off in sparse MAD setups. Additionally, the study shows that lightweight deliberation stopping can further reduce inference costs without sacrificing accuracy.

When Evidence Shapes Collaboration: Knowledge-Conditioned Topology Generation for Multi-Agent Systems

The paper introduces K‑GAT, a neuro‑symbolic framework that generates multi‑agent collaboration topologies conditioned on external evidence, treating the design as a knowledge‑conditioned structure learning problem. Unlike prior methods that rely mainly on large language model parameters, K‑GAT integrates external evidence directly into autoregressive graph generation, reducing redundant interactions and improving verification in knowledge‑intensive tasks. Experiments on benchmarks such as the expert‑level GPQA dataset show K‑GAT achieving a +15.7% accuracy gain over the LLM‑Debate baseline while using fewer computational tokens.

MasFACT: Continual Multi-Agent Topology Learning via Geometry-Aware Posterior Transfer

arXiv:2605. 17361v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multi-agent systems (MAS) powered by large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a powerful paradigm for complex problem solving, where performance critically depends on the underlying inter-agent communication topology.
