Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized AI applications, but deploying them at scale presents significant challenges. We present RTP-LLM, a high-performance inference engine for industrial-scale LLM deployment, successfully…

We investigate the computational complexity of neural network verification in quantised settings. We distinguish three classes of Feedforward Neural Networks (FNNs): rational FNNs with exact rational weights, quantised FNNs whose weights…

AI is transforming life sciences research at unprecedented speed, accelerating discovery across protein structure prediction, genome modeling, and drug development (Jumper et al., 2021; Mak et al., 2024). Yet this rapid advancement, coupled…

The substance of this paper is the description of the use of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for specific digital collections of cultural assets. The collections are provided by institutions operating in the cultural sector. The…

We prove in this paper that there is a language $L_s$ accepted by some nondeterministic Turing machine that runs within time $O(n^k)$ for any positive integer $k\in\mathbb{N}_1$ but not by any ${\rm co}\mathcal{NP}$ machines. Then we…

Users of search-augmented LLMs rely on citations as evidence that responses are grounded in real sources, and rarely verify the cited pages themselves. Millions of queries per day now pass through these systems, making citation quality a…

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate scientific reports, but they can produce references that appear plausible while containing corrupted metadata or pointing to papers that do not exist. We introduce CiteCheck, a…

A real-time multicore system requires delay bounds on access to shared resources. These resources include the kernel, which has potentially many non-preemptible critical sections guarded by one or more different synchronization primitives.…

Claims about recursive self-improvement in AI often slide from repeated internal revision to the possibility of qualitatively stronger capability without clearly distinguishing the underlying computational regimes. This paper gives a formal…

Rice's theorem shows that nontrivial extensional properties of partial recursive functions are undecidable. For finite weighted Boolean optimization/CSP-style slices, a Rice-style structural analogue holds for tractability classification:…

Let $f: T\to \{ 0,1 \}$ be a Boolean function on the Boolean half-slice, $T$, \ie elements of $\{0,1\}^n$ with Hamming weight $n/2$. We show that if $f(x)+f(y)=f(x+y)$ holds with probability $\frac{1+\delta}{2}$ over a uniform pair $(x,y)$…

Linux is the foundation of the digital age, accounting for the majority of the cloud and mobile OS markets. Any device that runs Linux uses the Linux page cache, a central pillar in OS and application performance, serving to reduce…

KV cache management is essential for efficient LLM inference. To maximize utilization, existing inference engines evict finished requests' KV cache if new requests are waiting. This policy breaks for agentic workloads, which interleave LLM…

We introduce Pudlak-Buss style Prover-Adversary games to characterise proof systems reasoning over deterministic branching programs (BPs) and non-deterministic branching programs (NBPs). Our starting points are the proof systems eLDT and…

We propose a framework of algorithm vs. hardness for all Max-CSPs and demonstrate it for a large class of predicates. This framework extends the work of Raghavendra [STOC, 2008], who showed a similar result for almost satisfiable Max-CSPs.…

We prove new upper and lower bounds on $\epsilon$-approximate sign-rank, a relaxation of sign-rank introduced by Chornomaz, Moran, and Waknine (STOC 2025). We show that every $m \times n$ sign matrix with approximate sign-rank $d$ contains…

Scientific papers make claims about prior work backed by citations. Verifying those citations at scale (that each cited paper exists, says what the citation claims, and is itself reliable) is structurally beyond what human review can…

Unlike in TFNP, for which there is an abundance of problems capturing natural existence principles which are incomparable (in the black-box setting), Kleinberg et al. [KKMP21] observed that many of the natural problems considered so far in…

We present BookReconciler, an open-source tool for enhancing and clustering book data. BookReconciler allows users to take spreadsheets with minimal metadata, such as book title and author, and automatically 1) add authoritative, persistent…

It is an open question whether the search and decision versions of promise CSPs are equivalent. Most known algorithms for PCSPs solve only their \emph{decision} variant, and it is unknown whether they can be adapted to solve \emph{search}…
