arXiv:2603. 05290v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve promising performance, yet their ability to reason remains poorly understood.
arXiv:2604. 17621v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many real-world questions appear deceptively simple yet implicitly demand two capabilities: (i) systematic coverage of a bounded knowledge universe and (ii) compositional set-based reasoning over that universe, a phenomenon we term "the tip of the iceberg.
arXiv:2509. 03059v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown that their reasoning capabilities can be significantly improved through Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR), particularly in domains like mathematics and programming, where ground-truth correctness can be automatically evaluated.
The paper introduces R3Con, a framework that applies principled design rules—derived from cognitive relevance theory—to construct effective context representations for large-scale reasoning tasks. By systematically organizing vast, heterogeneous information into manageable structures, R3Con outperforms nine state‑of‑the‑art baselines on two large‑document reasoning benchmarks, achieving up to 20 percentage points higher accuracy. Notably, R3Con enables smaller models (4B–9B) to surpass larger 35B models and even Claude Code, demonstrating that principled context representation can reduce dependence on model scale.
The paper surveys efficient reasoning in large language models, contrasting fast intuitive (System 1) and slow deep (System 2) reasoning. It analyzes why System 2 is computationally costly yet more accurate, and why System 1 is efficient but less effective. The survey covers causes of inefficiency, patterns of reasoning behavior, and potential solutions to balance performance and computational budgets, offering actionable insights and an open‑source repository for ongoing research.
