LTA-thinker: Latent Thought-Augmented Training Framework for Large Language Models on Complex Reasoning
Complex Reasoning in Large Language Models can be dynamically optimized using Test-Time Scaling (TTS) to mitigate Overthinking. Methods such as Coconut, SoftCoT and its variant are effective in continuous latent space inference, the core bottleneck still lies in the efficient generation and utilization of high-quality Latent Thought. Drawing from the theory of SoftCoT++ that a larger variance in the generated Latent Thought distribution more closely approximates the golden truth distribution, w…

Mind the Ethics! The Overlooked Ethical Dimensions of GenAI in Software Modeling Education
Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly gaining momentum in software modeling education, embraced by both students and educators. As GenAI assists with interpreting requirements, formalizing models, and translating students' mental models into structured notations, it increasingly shapes core learning outcomes such as domain comprehension, diagrammatic thinking, and modeling fluency without clear ethical oversight or pedagogical guidelines. Yet, the ethical implications of this in…

$L^2$-solutions to stochastic reaction-diffusion equations with superlinear drifts driven by space-time white noise^
Consider the following stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with logarithmic superlinear coefficient b, driven by space-time white noise W: $$ u_t(t,x) = (1/2)u_{xx}(t,x) + b(u(t,x)) + σ(u(t,x))W(dt,dx) $$ for $t > 0$ and $x \in [0,1]$, with initial condition $$ u(0,x) = u_0(x) $$ for $x \in [0,1]$, where $u_0 \in L^2[0,1]$. In this paper, we establish existence and uniqueness of probabilistically strong solutions in $C(R_+, L^2[0,1])$. Our result resolves a problem from [Ann. Probab. 47 (…

Detector-based measurement-induced state updates in AdS/CFT
Conventional understandings of quantum theory hold that measurements change the state of an observed system following the Lüders update rule. Textbooks describe the application of this idea to non-relativistic systems, but extensions to relativistic and gravitating systems encounter subtleties. One consistent approach is via detector-based measurements. We study the effects of such measurements in a CFT with a holographic dual. We work out the boundary space-time regions associated to a Lüder…

You know, I’m sorry, I really appreciate that at least Spain and a few other countries are doing something now but if you’re a fucking whole-ass country, your “threat” in the face of genocide being committed as we speak if you want to stop said genocide being committed isn’t to pull out of a fucking song contest. It’s to send your damn army – ideally along with a few others – as a peacekeeping force to stop the sons of bitches who are committing genocide.
But hey, pulling out of a song…

MultiPark: Multimodal Parking Transformer with Next-Segment Prediction
Parking accurately and safely in highly constrained spaces remains a critical challenge. Unlike structured driving environments, parking requires executing complex maneuvers such as frequent gear shifts and steering saturation. Recent attempts to employ imitation learning (IL) for parking have achieved promising results. However, existing works ignore the multimodal nature of parking behavior in lane-free open space, failing to derive multiple plausible solutions under the same situation. Notab…

Fredholm criteria for Wiener-Hopf operators with continuous symbols acting on some Banach function spaces
Let $X(\mathbb{R}_{+})$ be one of the following three Banach function spaces: a Lorentz space $L^{p, q}(\mathbb{R}_{+})$ with $1 < p, q < \infty$; a reflexive Orlicz space $L^Φ(\mathbb{R}_{+})$; or a variable Lebesgue space $L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}_{+})$ with variable exponent $p(\cdot)\in \mathcal{B}_{M}(\mathbb{R})$. We extend the Fredholm criteria for Wiener-Hopf operators with continuous symbols on the Lebesgue space $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}_{+})$, $1 < p < \infty$, obtained by Roland Duduchava i…
