Meta$^n$ is a recursive self‑improvement framework for large language models that keeps a fixed meta‑operation Ω and repeatedly applies it to its own outputs, creating deeper layers that reason from higher perspectives. By avoiding changes to the meta‑operation, the system remains stable while the input grows, allowing depth to emerge through convergence and evolutionary search. Experiments on two backbone models show Meta$^n$ surpasses prior self‑improving agents across eight benchmark families, notably achieving positive scores on the ARC‑AGI‑2 benchmark designed to resist skill memorization.

The paper introduces the Self‑Emergence Agent Architecture (SEAA), a framework that combines a Hidden Markov Model for behavioral inertia, a reflexive metacognition loop that updates the HMM, and a social environment where agents compare behaviors. This closed loop enables agents to develop distinct, stable personalities and social structures without external prompts. Experiments with both a language‑model‑free prototype and hosted LLMs demonstrate spontaneous symmetry breaking and the emergence of consensus hubs and outliers.
