arXiv:2607. 01767v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As agent planning moves from short tool chains toward persistent workflows with thousands or tens of thousands of steps, failures will occur inside large planning graphs rather than in isolated predictions.

The paper introduces Commute-Time-Preserving World Models (CTWMs), which learn latent representations that reflect commute-times in an environment by using a latent displacement predictor and a log-determinant regularizer. This approach addresses the issue that existing self-supervised methods degrade the necessary eigenvalue-dependent scaling for accurate commute-time representation. In experiments, CTWMs outperform the task-agnostic baseline LeWM on several continuous goal-reaching benchmarks while using only half the parameters.

The paper introduces the Graph Dynamics Model (GDM), a world model that learns stochastic latent dynamics over evolving graph topologies. GDM employs a sparse recurrent adjacency matrix for topology updates and a recurrent state‑space architecture for stochastic transitions, enabling it to handle partially observable, stochastic environments. The authors also propose the Graph Distribution Distance (GDD) metric, using maximum mean discrepancy with a graph kernel, to compare predicted and true joint graph state distributions, and demonstrate GDM’s superior performance and zero‑shot generalisation on large graphs.

arXiv:2607. 08894v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents have shown promise in multi-step planning tasks, but existing approaches like LATS (Language Agent Tree Search) and ReAct rely heavily on LLM inference during planning, leading to high computational costs and stochastic behavior.
