Title: Distribution-Aware Algorithm Design with LLM Agents

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.14141v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study learning when the learned object is executable solver code rather than a predictor. In this setting, correctness is not enough: two solvers may both return valid solutions on the deployment distribution while differing substantially in runtime. Given samples from an unknown task distribution, the learner returns code evaluated on fresh instances by both solution quality and execution time. Our central abstraction is a \emph{solver hint}: r
