Reinforcing the World's Edge: A Continual Learning Problem in the Multi-Agent-World Boundary

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.06813v1 Announce Type: new Reusable decision structure survives across episodes in reinforcement learning, but this depends on how the agent--world boundary is drawn. In stationary, finite-horizon MDPs, an invariant core: the (not-necessarily contiguous) subsequences of state--action pairs shared by all successful trajectories (optionally under a simple abstraction) can be constructed. Under mild goal-conditioned assumptions, it's existence can be proven and explained by how the core captures prototypes that transfer across episodes.
