Research: Multi-agent system decomposition impacts yield and integrity

A new research paper titled "Decomposition Buys Integrity, Not Yield" explores the efficiency of multi-agent systems. The study models task decomposition as a tree structure, analyzing how the probability of an agent retaining information affects the overall yield. Findings suggest that while deeper agent trees can reduce exposure to large contexts, a flat architecture is often optimal for maximizing yield. The research also quantifies the cost of alignment and the efficiency gains of tiered agent systems compared to flat ones, indicating that current delegation practices may not fully leverage the potential of these systems.
