What Limits Recursive Reasoning Models: Optimization, Architecture and Test-Time Scaling

Recursive reasoning models apply a small shared Transformer block many times to refine a latent state. This gives them large effective depth with few parameters and makes them strong on algorithmic tasks. Such compact solvers are natural candidates for tools that an LLM can call on narrow algorithmic subproblems. Howev …

Your Transformer Can Hold Two Thoughts at Once: Evidence of Linear Superposition in LLMs

While Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on highly non-linear components, in this work we demonstrate that they exhibit fundamental linearity: when inputs from distinct text streams are linearly combined, the model outputs a superposition of the individual next-token distributions. We term this the \textit{Superposition …
