arXiv:2606. 16222v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly rely on intermediate reasoning, yet explicit Chain-of-Thought (CoT) suffers from a linguistic space bottleneck: each thought must be decoded into tokens, causing high inference overhead.

arXiv:2606. 00726v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Strong reasoning depends not only on model knowledge but also on how effectively cognitive behaviors are deployed during generation.

arXiv:2608. 02585v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optimization-based latent reasoning improves large language model outputs by optimizing instance-specific continuous states at test time while keeping model parameters frozen.
