The week’s most important papers on large language models: reasoning, agents, evaluation and alignment — with real results, not position pieces.

New exoplanets and what we learn about them: discoveries, atmospheres and habitability, from JWST and the surveys.

Battery chemistry results with numbers: energy density, cycle life and cost — sodium-ion, solid-state and new cathodes.

New robotics papers with experiments on physical robots: manipulation, locomotion and robot learning.

Research on how DeFi works and breaks: MEV, AMM design, lending risk, oracle security and mechanism design — papers and serious forum posts with real analysis.

Zero-knowledge proof systems and zkVMs: new SNARKs and STARKs, folding schemes, prover performance and deployments.

Research on training and running models without exposing data: differential privacy, federated learning, secure inference and multi-party computation for ML.

New fully homomorphic encryption research: schemes, bootstrapping, hardware acceleration and encrypted machine learning — with benchmarks, not just ideas.

Progress in quantum hardware and error correction — experiments on real devices, not just proposals.

CRISPR, base and prime editing: clinical trial readouts, regulatory decisions and the research that moves the field.

New quantitative finance research with out-of-sample results: trading, portfolio construction, risk and market microstructure.
