Testing LFM2-2.6B-Exp on Differential Equations I recently tested LFM2-2.6B-Exp, an experimental language model developed by Liquid AI, to see how well it handles differential equations in a practical, step-by-step setting. LFM2-2.6B-Exp is notable for how it was trained: it is an RL-first experimental checkpoint, built without supervised fine-tuning warm-up or distillation. Reinforcement learning was applied sequentially, starting with instruction following and later expanding to knowledge and math. This makes it a particularly interesting model to evaluate beyond benchmark scores. In hands-on testing, the model performed surprisingly well for its size on standard undergraduate-level differential equations—first-order ODEs, second-order linear equations with constant coefficients, and nonhomogeneous problems using undetermined coefficients. It followed instructions closely and produced clear, structured solution steps. However, the model showed limitations on more subtle methods, such as Laplace transforms with time shifting and variation of parameters, where maintaining mathematical invariants matters more than following a familiar template. In these cases, answers often looked correct structurally but failed under careful verification. This behavior is consistent with an RL-first training approach: strong at producing expected answer forms, but not always robust on deeper theoretical details. Liquid AI, the company behind this model, is strongly focused on edge AI, developing efficient models designed for deployment outside large data-center environments. Their model lineup spans from very small models (millions of paramet Model google notebook can be accessed here https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1QH9d97oc68VJd0xe4vAbvHArQxpk4Ism?usp=sharing Full detailed article here https://fate-stingray-0b3.notion.site/Hands-On-with-LFM2-2-6B-Exp-Testing-an-RL-First-Model-on-Differential-Equations-2d43b975deec809e8b05c52652cfb500
