arXiv:2607. 14658v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel in general tasks, rigorous scientific reasoning remains challenging due to the limitations of monolithic, linear planning.

arXiv:2605. 26179v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Density functional theory (DFT) serves as the basis for computational discovery in materials science and chemistry, yet each calculation demands extensive human effort: adjusting algorithms when convergence stalls, revising plans when unexpected physics emerges, and inserting steps as intermediate results reshape the problem.
