arXiv:2510. 03494v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study finite-horizon offline reinforcement learning (RL) with function approximation for both policy evaluation and policy optimization.

arXiv:2608. 18008v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Combining large language models with reinforcement learning is increasingly explored, yet the theoretical status of LLM-derived reward signals is often left implicit.

arXiv:2603. 23461v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study reinforcement learning (RL) with linear function approximation in Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) satisfying \emph{linear Bellman completeness} -- a fundamental setting where the Bellman backup of any linear value function remains linear.

arXiv:2307. 10524v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the tradeoff between consistency and robustness in the context of a single-trajectory time-varying Markov Decision Process (MDP) with untrusted machine-learned advice.

arXiv:2607. 20152v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Active Inference (AIF) frames adaptive behavior as the minimization of expected free energy (EFE), combining epistemic and pragmatic objectives within a single variational principle.

arXiv:2607. 03168v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Entropy regularization is widely used in continuous-time reinforcement learning (RL) to reduce sensitivity to environmental perturbations, yet its robustness benefits lack a rigorous theoretical foundation.
