This paper is adjacent to HFEPX scope and is best used for background context, not as a primary protocol reference.
Use this as background context only. Do not make protocol decisions from this page alone.
All signals on this page are inferred from the abstract only and may be inaccurate. Do not use this page as a primary protocol reference.

Main weakness
This paper looks adjacent to evaluation work, but not like a strong protocol reference.
Treat as adjacent context, not a core eval-method reference.

Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable multi-hop reasoning capabilities over long contexts, yet the internal mechanisms enabling these distant cognitive leaps remain poorly understood. Traditional attention-based interpretability often fails to capture true semantic proximity due to routing artifacts like attention sinks. In this paper, we bypass attention weights to directly analyze the dynamic geometry of the hidden state manifold, proving that deep LLM latent spaces natively organize into Small-World networks. By sparsifying the continuous similarity matrices of long-context representations into unweighted graphs, we trace the connectivity between highly disjoint semantic anchors across two distinct architectures. Our findings reveal a sharp topological phase transition: while early syntactic layers remain entirely fractured, deep reasoning layers abruptly compress massive conceptual distances into highly navigable pathways strictly bounded by the "Six Degrees of Separation" limit (=< 6 semantic hops). Furthermore, we demonstrate the practical efficacy of this framework by applying it to zero-shot hallucination detection within Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) using the RAGognize dataset. We show that factually grounded generations maintain structural integrity with their source context (approximately 3 hops), whereas hallucinations induce severe topological collapse. Ultimately, this work mathematically formalizes how transformers execute abstract reasoning and provides a novel, strictly geometric signature for evaluating factual reliability.
These are the protocol signals we could actually recover from the available paper metadata. Use them to decide whether this paper is worth deeper reading.
