Title: Transitivity Meets Cyclicity: Explicit Preference Decomposition for Dynamic Large Language Model Alignment

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.17342v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Standard RLHF relies on transitive scalar rewards, failing to capture the cyclic nature of human preferences. While some approaches like the General Preference Model (GPM) address this, we identify a theoretical limitation: their implicit formulation entangles hierarchy with cyclicity, failing to guarantee dominant solutions. To address this, we propose the Hybrid Reward-Cyclic (HRC) model, which utilizes game-theoretic decomposition to explicitl
