arXiv:2607. 09748v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In distributed systems, the classical State Machine Replication (SMR) model assumes that correct replicas execute deterministic transitions to yield identical bitwise states.

arXiv:2607. 05844v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent systems accumulate conflicting observations across branches, retries, and replicas, yet many practical memory layers still collapse disagreement behind overwrite rules that are difficult to inspect or correct.

arXiv:2607. 04613v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous agents are moving from sandboxed text generators to operators of code, data, and physical infrastructure, and they increasingly learn while deployed.

arXiv:2608. 16357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous agents share a transport and can call each other's tools, but they cannot share what they know: no protocol lets two agents' memories reconcile a fact phrased two ways, link related facts held apart, or reconcile contradictory knowledge without silently discarding either claim.

arXiv:2609. 04875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-running LLM agents are stateful: beyond the transcript they accrete compressed summaries, plaintext memory, pending tool plans, and, under every serving API, a KV cache.

The paper introduces the concept of Cognitive Serializability for autonomous AI agents, ensuring that mutations derived from dynamic inputs—such as database reads, evidence, policy, beliefs, and delegated authority—are committed in a serial, logically consistent order. It presents a framework called Trusted Cognitive Transaction (TCT) that combines immutable executable definitions, sealed envelopes, guard-first commits, and receipt-driven reconciliation to enforce serializability and prevent anomalies. Experimental results show that the prototype implementation incurs minimal overhead while eliminating injected anomalies.
