A Statistical Physics of Language Model Reasoning
Jack David Carson, Amir Reisizadeh
Transformer LMs show emergent reasoning that resists mechanistic understanding. We offer a statistical physics framework for continuous-time chain-of-thought reasoning dynamics. We…

A Stochastic Dynamical Theory of LLM Self-Adversariality: Modeling Severity Drift as a Critical Process
Jack David Carson
This paper introduces a continuous-time stochastic dynamical framework for understanding how large language models (LLMs) may self-amplify latent biases or toxicity through their o…
