    Maybe you've heard of the "can one hear the shape of a drum" question. In the 90's, mathematicians successfully produced two drum shapes that would theoretically produce indistingu…

    For anyone wondering, "mse" probably means "math Stack Exchange".

    Also, the mathematical content here is pretty thin. Their main theorem has nothing to do with LLMs directly. It's a theorem about a five-state Markov chain, and the proof follows f…

    Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like the authors did not actually have any LLMs write or verify any code for their experiments. Instead, their experiments consist of simulating the s…

    Why say this in such a rude way?

    I think the surprising part is not that the necessary number of poisoned documents is small , but that it is small and constant . The typical heuristic is that a little bad data is…

    Mathematicians are afraid of higher order tensors because they are unruly monsters. There's a whole workshop of useful matrix tools. Decompositions, spectral theory, etc. These too…

    I'm always surprised how many other mathematicians don't know what I'm talking about when I reference this paper. It should be in the canon of math essays.
