A survey paper on agentic reinforcement learning for LLMs, mapping over 500 works into capabilities and applications, showing how models learn by acting across time.

Nice survey paper mapping agentic reinforcement learning for LLMs, showing how models learn by acting across time. Covers 500+ works and groups them into a 2-part map of capabilities and applications. The problem is that common LLM training rewards a single answer once, then stops learning. Real tasks need many steps, partial information, and choices that affect what happens later. The survey formalizes that setup as an agent that sees a bit, chooses an action, and gets feedback. That perspective uses memory to track context, planning to pick sequences, and tools to affect the world. It also includes reasoning for constraint handling, perception for multimodal inputs, and self-improvement to refine policies. Reinforcement learning links all of this, because rewards arrive after sequences, so the policy learns what to try next. ---- Paper – arxiv. org/abs/2509.02547 Paper Title: "The Landscape of Agentic Reinforcement Learning for LLMs: A Survey"
