arXiv:2607. 21645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-horizon latent consistency is a common training knob in video predictors and world models, but practitioners rarely know what it does to transition geometry.

A Control Theory of Predictability in Latent World Models

arXiv:2607. 10362v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent world models are trained to predict future states in a learned representation and are then deployed inside a planner that selects actions by simulating them forward.

The Intervention Gap in Latent World Models

The paper introduces the concept of intervention fidelity in latent world models, measuring whether a model’s open‑loop transitions align with actual environment interventions. Experiments on TD‑MPC2, Cheetah, and DreamerV3 show that high reward fit does not guarantee fidelity, and that self‑supervised models can outperform task‑anchored ones in preserving intervention effects. The authors propose a capture‑gated audit to localize failures and argue that fidelity must be directly audited on the model’s native interface.

Latent Generative Solvers for Generalizable Long-Term Physics Simulation

The paper introduces the Latent Generative Solver (LGS), a neural PDE solver that combines a Physics VAE, a Pyramidal Flow-Forcing Transformer, and input noising to achieve generalization across twelve PDE families and stable long-term rollouts. LGS matches or surpasses deterministic baselines on one-step predictions, outperforms them on 5- and 10-step rollouts, and significantly reduces long-horizon error while cutting compute costs. It also adapts efficiently to unseen higher-resolution systems, demonstrating strong empirical performance on 2D regular-grid PDE simulations.
