Reasoning is topologically simple

arXiv:2611.03739v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We formulate and investigate the hypothesis that reasoning text has simpler co-occurrence topology than non-reasoning text, and that higher-quality reasoning has simpler co-occurrence topology than lower-quality reasoning. We discuss and test applications to AI safety and AI evaluation.

Research prediction: Shift from digital banking to AI-driven finance will transform financial services in 2027

The coming year will signal an abrupt transition from digital banking to intelligent finance, as AI agents and operating models reshape the ways that financial firms acquire customers and provide advice. This is the central thesis of a new Forrester Research report, “Predictions 2027: Banking and Investing.” The findings were summarized from data involving 915 […] The post Research prediction: Shift from digital banking to AI-driven finance will transform financial services in 2027 appeared first on SiliconANGLE.

Same Rule, Different Verdicts: Rubric Language and Clause Structure in LLM Judges for Korean Support Dialogues

arXiv:2611.04091v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Services that operate in Korean often write their evaluation rubrics in Korean and hand them to an LLM judge. We test whether a judge's verdict depends on the language of the rubric and on how a rubric item is phrased. We write 12 criteria for support dialogues in four clause structures (affirmative, negated, conditional, exception) such that two pairs of structures have the same meaning, and we give each item in Korean and in English. Six low-cost models from three providers, plus one reference model, judge 60 translated ESConv dialogues and 144 constructed boundary cases under every combination (51,744 requests across the seven models). The analysis plan was fixed and committed before data collection. Cross-provider agreement is lower with Korean rubrics than with English rubrics (Cohen's kappa 0.687 vs. 0.745; difference -0.058, 95% CI [-0.072,-0.045]). Disagreement concentrates in negated, conditional, and exception items (odds ratio 5.6 relative to affirmative items). A single model changes its verdict between two items with the same meaning in 11-15% of cases. Two hypotheses are not supported: models from the same provider do not agree more than models from different providers, and adding paired examples does not reduce the language gap. We measure consistency only; no human labels are used, and all materials were drafted by an LLM.

Say Less, Mean Better: Training-Free Verbosity Control for Language Models

arXiv:2611.04107v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often generate responses longer than necessary, increasing inference latency and computational cost. While prompting can encourage conciseness, controlling output length without compromising response completeness remains challenging. Aggressive early stopping can reduce generation costs but risks terminating responses prematurely. We introduce MinimalLM, a training-free framework for reliable verbosity control that combines uncertainty-aware, length-dependent stop-token adjustment with structural completeness guardrails. MinimalLM separates the decision of when to stop from whether stopping is structurally appropriate, coordinating response-level instructions, decoding-time intervention, and completion checks without modifying model parameters or requiring auxiliary models. We evaluate MinimalLM across three open-source LLMs and 330 questions, producing 5,940 responses across baseline and ablation configurations. MinimalLM reduces generated tokens by 47.6%, accelerates individual responses by 19-68%, and eliminates structurally truncated outputs in the primary evaluation. Despite substantial token savings, it achieves an average quality score of 8.04/10, compared with 8.42/10 for unmodified models and 6.46/10 for length-matched truncation. Evaluations across diverse subject domains (such as healthcare, programming, law, and science) demonstrate robust efficiency gains, while ablations establish the complementary roles of decoding control and completeness constraints. Our findings highlight that efficient generation requires more than producing fewer tokens: it requires controlling when generation ends while preserving response integrity. MinimalLM offers a lightweight, training-free approach toward this goal.

ScienceVision: Can AI Observe and Reason Like a Scientist?

arXiv:2611.04087v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific discovery builds on accurate observations interpreted through domain knowledge and reasoning. For scientific 3D data, this requires understanding structures and spatial relationships, from protein contacts to anatomical organization. Existing multimodal benchmarks largely evaluate text and 2D images, while scientific 3D evaluations vary in representations and protocols across disciplines, limiting cross-disciplinary comparison. To assess these foundational capabilities, we introduce ScienceVision, a cross-domain benchmark for scientific 3D understanding and reasoning through expert-level visual question answering (VQA). We construct 250 questions, with 50 each from Biology, Chemistry, Medical Imaging, Mechanical CAD, and Architecture, through a pipeline combining synthetic question generation with domain-expert review and annotation. Each task pairs a native 3D artifact with a scientific question, a specified response format, and a task-specific reference answer, requiring domain knowledge to be applied to geometric or topological evidence. We evaluate 12 models on the same questions in three settings: visual question answering with native 3D artifacts accessed through an agent harness's file and code-execution tools; the same workflow augmented with expert-inspired viewer inspection and measurement tools exposed through the Model Context Protocol (MCP); and visual question answering from prescribed rendered 2D images using an agent harness. All settings use the same task-specific deterministic final-answer scoring. The inspection environment supports view changes, target isolation, and slice inspection. In this main comparison, the best mean answer score is 0.53 out of 1. Mean scores in the native-artifact workflow without additional MCP tools exceed those in the rendered-image workflow for every model, by 17.2 percentage points on average.

Self-stabilising approximate clock synchronisation requires linear time

arXiv:2611.04725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synchronising the clocks of processes is a fundamental problem in distributed computing. We consider message-passing systems in which processes start in an arbitrary initial state (self-stabilisation) and up to $f$ processes may be non-transiently faulty. It is well known that synchronising clocks \emph{exactly} is at least as hard as consensus and requires $\Theta(f)$ time. In contrast, without self-stabilisation, clocks can be synchronised \emph{approximately} much faster, in time independent of the number of non-transient faults [Srikanth and Toueg, JACM 1987; Welch and Lynch, Inf. Comput. 1988]. In this work, we show that deterministic self-stabilising approximate clock synchronisation tasks require $\Omega(f)$ time to stabilise. This gives the first non-trivial time lower bound for these tasks, whose time complexity has remained open for over two decades [Dolev and Welch, JACM 2004; Dolev, F\"ugger, Schmid and Lenzen, JACM 2014]. In particular, this answers the open question whether self-stabilising approximate clock synchronisation tasks are as hard as consensus or as easy as approximate agreement [Lenzen and Rybicki, JACM 2019]. The results show that guaranteeing \emph{both} transient and non-transient fault-tolerance simultaneously is expensive even for approximate synchronisation tasks. The lower bounds hold in a very strong model: the faulty processes can only crash, the local clocks of processes have no clock drift, and the message delay is bounded and known to all processes. The proof is based on a combinatorial topological argument showing that no fast finite-state protocol can ensure that the clocks behave consistently across all executions. To our knowledge, this is the first use of topological arguments to prove time lower bounds in the self-stabilising setting.

Show HN: Exact integer LLL lattice basis reduction in C99

LLL, also known as Lenstra–Lenstra–Lovász lattice basis reduction algorithm, is an important algorithm in mathematics and cryptography. clll is an implementation of LLL in C99, which is small, is based on formally verified algorithm, and uses integer arithmetic only (GMP).Claim. clll is also high performant, based on the private benchmarks I have run comparing LLL implementations with exact arithmetic.
