QILP-0: Constructing Observational Declarative Twins of Quantum Circuits

Abstract

This paper introduces QXymb, a general framework for constructing observational declarative twins of quantum circuits, and develops QILP-0, its first complete order-0 specialization. QILP-0 constructs a finite multi-valued propositional logic program from observed circuit behaviour within a declared observational scope. The pipeline traverses a declared family of quantum observables incrementally according to a reproducible structural grading and a declared observational reference horizon. Progress is quantified through reference-relative coverage against a fixed target-independent reference. Observable responses are organized through target-independent geometry, while retained latent structure is mapped deterministically back to original observable columns before symbolic processing, preserving observational semantics and provenance. Selected observable profiles are converted into a finite relation through admissible target-independent discretization. The target is used only afterwards to audit twin-admissibility and induce the declarative theory. A theory is certified as an exact observational declarative twin when it completely and correctly reconstructs the resulting finite task-conditioned discrete relation. Logical exactness is therefore separated from numerical, backend, provider, and discretization uncertainty, which is retained as audit metadata. Validation uses two complementary QML settings. Exhaustive Bars & Stripes experiments compare product and grid-CZ embeddings from 16 to 100 qubits and exercise the native-discrete branch. Low-Depth MNIST analyses all 14,708 digit-0/1 instances before and after a trained variational quantum transformation and exercises continuous discretization. In every reported relation, the induced QILP-0 theory achieves complete, conflict-free reconstruction with strict accuracy equal to one.

Decoupling Readiness from Release for Tail-Aware Scheduling of Agentic LLM Workflows

Agentic LLM workflows consist of sequences of model turns interleaved with tool interactions, so their end-to-end completion time depends not only on inference speed but also on when ready turns are released. Most runtimes release each turn immediately upon readiness. Under contention, this eager release policy can accumulate released but unfinished work; once submitted, those turns can no longer be reordered by the workflow-level policy, increasing tail latency. We present a tail-risk-aware turn release scheduling method that jointly decides which ready turn to release next and how much released but unfinished work to maintain. The method uses a mean--Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) objective to capture the evolving tail risk of unfinished workflows, incorporates online estimates of turn work when prioritizing ready turns, and adapts the released work budget to observed queue pressure. We evaluate the method using real agent execution traces from software engineering tasks across multiple LLMs and workflow arrival rates. The method performs comparably to eager release under light load and substantially reduces the P95 of workflow flow time under contention, achieving up to a \(3.50\times\) speedup.

Demystifying the Privacy-Utility Trade-off in LLM Interactions

The integration of Large Language Models into daily tasks relies on context-rich instructions, inevitably exposing sensitive user information. Current privacy-preserving methods typically employ context-agnostic static rules, causing severe utility degradation. However, the specific mechanisms governing how sanitization impacts downstream performance remain largely underexplored. To address this, we conduct a systematic analysis to deconstruct the privacy-utility trade-off, uncovering three underlying mechanisms: (1) Context-Dependent Utility, which first establishes when to sanitize by revealing that data value shifts from critical constraints to dispensable noise based on user intent; (2) Strategic Adaptation, which subsequently determines how to sanitize by dictating that the choice between removal and replacement depends on the task's reliance on factual integrity versus structural coherence; and (3) Combinatorial Interplay, which finally extends the protection scope by demonstrating that attributes form a semantic web of synergistic dependencies or antagonistic redundancies. Guided by these insights, we introduce an intent-driven local protection framework. By distilling a lightweight model Veilmind-4B to drive a dynamic extraction-sanitization-restoration pipeline, our approach reaches a low-leakage privacy point while preserving substantially higher response utility than existing privacy-oriented baselines, advancing the privacy-utility trade-off toward the Pareto frontier.

Defining AI Agents: A Compendium of Criteria, Metrics, and Benchmarks

The term agent in artificial intelligence lacks a standard definition, complicating the evaluation, comparison, and reproducibility of AI agent research. We address this ambiguity through a survey organized around five dimensions of agenticness: environmental interaction, learning and adaptation, autonomy, goal-directed behavior, and temporal coherence. For each dimension, we examine how the underlying capability has been conceptualized across prior work and synthesize the metrics, benchmarks, and evaluation frameworks used to assess it. This review provides a structured account of the current landscape of agent evaluation, highlighting both established approaches and areas where evaluation remains limited or inconsistent. We additionally introduce the Agent Compendium, a public-facing digital resource that organizes and extends the evaluation methods identified through this review. Together, the survey and compendium provide a common structure for evaluating and comparing agent capabilities across AI systems, supporting more reproducible research, clearer communication, and more systematic study of artificial agents.
