A core probe for evaluating **semantic convergence** across multiple seeds, paraphrases, and retrieval variations.
While ΔS measures semantic distance, **λ_observe** captures **stability vs divergence of reasoning paths**.
---
## Why λ_observe matters
- **Detect fragile reasoning**: Even when ΔS looks safe, λ divergence indicates unstable chains.
- **Identify paraphrase sensitivity**: If λ flips across harmless rewordings, the system is brittle.
- **Audit retrieval randomness**: Different seeds producing opposite λ signals reveal weak schema.
- **Ensure eval reproducibility**: Stable λ means tests repeat reliably under small perturbations.

## λ state encoding
| Symbol | Meaning | Example failure |
|--------|---------|-----------------|
| **→** | Forward convergence, stable path | Same citations and reasoning across paraphrases |
| **←** | Backward collapse, early abort | Tool call retries, empty citations |
| **<>** | Split state, partial divergence | One paraphrase cites correct snippet, others miss |
| **×** | Total collapse | Random answers, no citation alignment |
---
## Acceptance targets
- **Convergence rate ≥ 0.80** across 3 paraphrases × 2 seeds.
- **No × states** tolerated in gold-set eval.
- **Split states (<>): ≤ 10%** of test cases acceptable.
- **Forward (→)** must dominate stable runs.
---
## Evaluation workflow
1. **Run triple paraphrase probe**
Ask the same question three ways. Collect λ states.
2. **Repeat with two seeds**
Track variance.
3. **Roll-up stats**
Compute convergence ratio, collapse frequency, divergence rate.
4. **Escalation**
If λ <0.80 or × >0%, run root-cause: schema audit, retriever split, prompt ordering.

## Example probe schema
```json
{
"query_id": "Q42",
"runs": [
{"paraphrase": 1, "seed": 123, "λ": "→"},
{"paraphrase": 2, "seed": 123, "λ": "→"},
{"paraphrase": 3, "seed": 123, "λ": "<>"},
{"paraphrase": 1, "seed": 456, "λ": "→"},
{"paraphrase": 2, "seed": 456, "λ": "×"},
{"paraphrase": 3, "seed": 456, "λ": "→"}
]
}

## Common pitfalls
* **Only measuring ΔS** → misses hidden divergence.
* **Seed-fixed eval** → looks stable but fragile in production.
* **Ignoring split states** → small divergence often grows into collapse.
* **No per-query logs** → averages hide catastrophic single failures.
---
## Reporting recommendations
* **λ distribution table**: % of →, ←, <>, ×.
* **Convergence trend**: chart over time by eval batch.
* **Drift alerts**: trigger if convergence <0.80 or × appears.
* **Correlation**: track ΔS vs λ to spot mixed failures.
