MAPS: Macro-Adaptive Parallel Reasoning for Regulating Search Momentum in Retrieval-Augmented Generation
arXiv:2610.29792v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) improves the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) by retrieving external knowledge. Recently, some RAG methods interleave reason…
Stability analysis of boundary element methods for the wave equation: The weakly singular operator in $1d$
arXiv:2610.29795v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We discuss the construction of stable discrete pairs of trial and test spaces for the wave equation. Building on a general abstract operator-theoretic framework, we show ho…
Asymmetric Likelihood-Free Hypothesis Testing
arXiv:2610.29798v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In likelihood-free hypothesis testing (LFHT), given samples from two unknown distributions $P,Q$ on $[n]$ with $\mathrm{d_{TV}}(P,Q)\geq\varepsilon$, and from a third distr…
Prefix Visibility Ratio: Quantifying Partial Observability in Carpet Bombing Detection
arXiv:2610.29802v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Carpet bombing attacks distribute malicious traffic across many destinations within a network prefix, while operational monitoring commonly provides destination-specific te…
In vitro starch digestion kinetic, formal analysis and new kinetic model
arXiv:2610.29806v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Describing mathematically the kinetics of the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch is a crucial part of nutrition and industrial applications studies. The majority of math models…
Some Results on the Weight Spectrum of Binary Reed-Muller Codes $RM(m-7,m)$
arXiv:2610.29807v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the set of weights occurring in the high-order binary Reed-Muller codes $RM(m-7,m)$. For every $m\geq 14$, we prove that the weight spectrum contains all even weig…
On the maximum length of cyclic MDS codes
arXiv:2610.29810v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the maximum length of nontrivial simple-root cyclic maximum distance separable (MDS) codes over ${\mathbb F}_q$. We prove $n\le q+1$ if $\gcd(n,q^2-1)>2$, or if th…
Compositionality with Primitives: A Unified View from Euclidean to Hyperbolic Vision-Language Models
arXiv:2610.29811v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Compositional zero-shot learning (CZSL) aims to recognize novel combinations of previously observed objects and attributes. Prior work showed that large-scale vision-langua…
Real PMIDs, Wrong Papers: Harness Design for Biomedical Claim-Verification Agents
arXiv:2610.29812v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Literature-searching language agents are becoming a standard component of scientific assistants for the life sciences, yet there is little controlled evidence on which part…
COMET: A coordinated multi-layer runtime monitoring framework for human-supervised AI-enabled safety systems
arXiv:2610.29816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Incorporating AI systems into safety systems requires monitoring to avoid silent faults and ensure safe and reliable operation. Single monitors often do not provide actiona…
Pfaffian Recognition is in coRP
arXiv:2610.29817v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A graph is called Pfaffian if it admits a Pfaffian orientation. The Pfaffian recognition problem asks whether a given graph is Pfaffian. In 1989, Vazirani and Yannakakis sh…
UlaCache: Unified Logical Addressing for Sparse LLM Serving
arXiv:2610.29820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long contexts increase the memory cost of the key-value (KV) cache in large language model (LLM) inference. Sparse attention reduces attention computation and memory traffi…
Controlling Variability in~Neuroimaging Analysis Pipelines with~Software Product Lines
arXiv:2610.29821v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an acquisition technique used for medical diagnosis. It is notably used for structural and functional MRI (or fMRI) image analysis. MRI …
UserSWE: Evaluating Coding Agents in Multi-Turn Conversations with Dynamic Users
arXiv:2610.29822v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As coding agents become more capable, developers increasingly use them to fix bugs through multi-turn interactions. Existing benchmarks do not adequately cover this scenari…
MemoryTax: The Bitter Lesson of Agent Memory
arXiv:2610.29823v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent memory systems such as Mem0 and Zep decide what to keep before any question arrives; coding agents keep the raw history and let the model search it with its own tools…
GuidedSAM-Plume: An Expert-Guided Segmentation Framework for Volcanic Plumes
arXiv:2610.29825v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantitative analysis of environmental phenomena increasingly relies on image-based measurements. In volcanology, the geometric characterization of volcanic plumes and clou…
