Two new research papers explore theoretical aspects of transformer models and their reasoning capabilities. One paper analyzes the expressive power of standard transformer decoders with softmax attention, demonstrating how they can simulate Turing machines with logarithmic scaling. The second paper provides a theoretical framework for curriculum learning in post-training LLMs, showing it can exponentially improve sample complexity for reasoning tasks compared to non-curriculum methods.
