Despite the wide deployment of memory in large-model agents, there is no unified formal account of what a memory is or when it is optimal. This paper takes a first step toward this account.

arXiv:2511. 22226v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The standard theory of model-free reinforcement learning assumes that the environment dynamics are stationary and that agents are decoupled from their environment, such that policies are treated as being separate from the world they inhabit.
arXiv:2608. 17053v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A bounded agent may obtain information for a decision from its own past, from peers, or from both sources.
arXiv:2607. 26336v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In model-based reinforcement learning, world models exist as internal simulators, but their training often conflates statistical correlations with causal mechanisms.
Recent studies on world modeling for Large Language Model (LLM) agents typically formulate the learning objective as next-observation prediction. However, this objective ties supervision to what a transition happens to reveal, which may omit the dynamics most relevant to the agent's current decision.
