Beyond Euclidean Clipping: Overcoming Exploration Collapse in LLM RL via Riemannian Isometric Policy Optimization

arXiv:2607.10169v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a dominant paradigm for enhancing LLMs' reasoning capabilities. However, RL algorithms with PPO-Clip are inherently limited by exploration collapse. Subsequent works remain primarily heuristic and fail to identify the essential cause of PPO-Clip's failure. This work reveals the fundamental flaw of PPO-Clip: it implicitly measures policy discrepancy using Euclidean metric, which is theoretically inconsistent with the intrinsic geometry on the policy Riemannian manifold. This geometric mismatch resul
