Affordance-Based Disambiguation of Surgical Instructions for Collaborative Robot-Assisted Surgery
Effective human-robot collaboration in surgery is affected by the inherent ambiguity of verbal communication. This paper presents a framework for a robotic surgical assistant that interprets and disambiguates verbal instructions from a surgeon by grounding them in the visual context of the operating field. The system employs a two-level affordance-based reasoning process that first analyzes the surgical scene using a multimodal vision-language model and then reasons about the instruction using …

Atom-Searcher: Enhancing Agentic Deep Research via Fine-Grained Atomic Thought Reward
Large language models (LLMs) exhibit remarkable problem-solving abilities, but struggle with complex tasks due to static internal knowledge. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances access to external information, yet remains limited in multi-hop reasoning and strategic search due to rigid workflows. Recent advancements in agentic deep research empower LLMs to autonomously reason, search, and synthesize information. However, current approaches relying on outcome-based reinforcement learnin…

Dehn surgery functions are never injective
We prove that, for each fixed rational number $p/q \in \mathbb{Q}$, there exists a pair of distinct knots whose $p/q$-surgeries are orientation-preservingly homeomorphic. This confirms a 1978 conjecture of Gordon.

Differentially Private aggregate hints in mev-share
Flashbots recently released mev-share to empower users with control over the amount of information they share with searchers for extracting Maximal Extractable Value (MEV). Searchers require more information to maintain on-chain exchange efficiency and profitability, while users aim to prevent frontrunning by withholding information. After analyzing two searching strategies in mev-share to reason about searching techniques, this paper introduces Differentially-Private (DP) aggregate hints as a …

Etwas erschlagen vom dänischen Nationalmuseum. Auch museumspädagogisch spannend fand ich: 1. die gut gemachte Vorzeit-Ausstellung, 2. The Viking Sorceress als interaktive Installation, 3. Kolonialismus und 4. den Schlenker von 1760 nach 1970/2000.

Passage times of fast inhomogeneous immigration processes
In many biophysical systems, key events are triggered when the fastest of many random searchers find a target. Most mathematical models of such systems assume that all searchers are initially present in the search domain, which permits the use of classical extreme value theory. In this paper, we explore $k$th passage times of inhomogeneous immigration processes where searchers are added to the domain over time either through time inhomogeneous rates or a Yule (pure birth) process. We rigorously…
