• Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the current status and opportunities for Large Language Models (LLMs) in strategic reasoning, a sophisticated form of reasoning that necessitates understanding and predicting adversary actions in multi-agent settings while adjusting strategies accordingly. Strategic reasoning is distinguished by its focus on the dynamic and uncertain nature of interactions among multi-agents, where comprehending the environment and anticipating the behavior of others is crucial. We explore the scopes, applications, methodologies, and evaluation metrics related to strategic reasoning with LLMs, highlighting the burgeoning development in this area and the interdisciplinary approaches enhancing their decision-making performance. It aims to systematize and clarify the scattered literature on this subject, providing a systematic review that underscores the importance of strategic reasoning as a critical cognitive capability and offers insights into future research directions and potential improvements.

• EPO: Explicit Policy Optimization for Strategic Reasoning in LLMs via Reinforcement Learning [69.55982246413046]
  We propose explicit policy optimization (EPO) for strategic reasoning. EPO provides strategies in open-ended action space and can be plugged into arbitrary LLM agents to motivate goal-directed behavior. Experiments across social and physical domains demonstrate EPO's ability of long-term goal alignment.
