arXiv:2606. 09886v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models achieve strong quality with low per-token compute, yet their deployment is often limited by the memory wall: the full expert pool must remain resident to support token-dependent routing.

arXiv:2606. 10928v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models can reduce the manual effort required to set up finite element simulations, but they introduce reliability risks when generated solver code lies on the critical path.

arXiv:2510. 09801v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While benchmarks measure the accuracy of LLM-powered agents, they mostly assume full automation, failing to represent the collaborative nature of real-world use cases.

arXiv:2606. 09926v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sampling from the sequence-level power distribution $p^\alpha$ elicits RL-level reasoning from base language models without any parameter updates, but the standard Metropolis--Hastings (MH), a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampler, is both expensive and slow-mixing.

arXiv:2606. 10062v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Foundation-model agents are increasingly long-lived systems that remember users across interactions, making memorization an explicit deployment-time function rather than solely a property of model weights.
