Decentralized multi-agent systems (MAS) enable large language model agents to interact without centralized control. Agents need to adapt to other agents at test time and reuse accumulated experience to refine their interaction strategies for future interactions across cooperative, mixed-motive, and adversarial settings. However, existing approaches often develop adaptation mechanisms for particular interaction settings. This raises a central question: how can decentralized MAS support test-time adaptation and reliable experience reuse across interaction settings? We propose EvolveMAS, a unified self-evolution framework that supports experience-driven adaptation within and across episodes. EvolveMAS pairs each main agent with a dedicated MemoryAgent for test-time memory governance, which maintains isolated Structured Memory outside the main agent's reasoning context. EvolveMAS organizes adaptation into two complementary processes: Within-Episode Online Adaptation and Cross-Episode Knowledge Evolution. During Within-Episode Online Adaptation, MemoryAgent updates episodic, semantic, and working memory from interaction evidence to inform subsequent actions. During Cross-Episode Knowledge Evolution, the main agent uses memory and episode outcomes to distill reusable interaction knowledge comprising partner profiles and interaction strategies for subsequent episodes. Across five benchmarks and six evaluation configurations spanning the three interaction settings, EvolveMAS achieves the highest normalized average score of 77.2 among the compared methods. Ablations show that test-time memory governance and cross-episode knowledge reuse both improve performance. Interaction traces further illustrate how updated memory and distilled knowledge guide subsequent interactions. These results support experience-driven adaptation in decentralized MAS without updating model parameters.

Existing knowledge graph completion research is gradually shifting from representing logical semantics of static facts to modeling evolving semantics of temporal facts, yet lacks collaborative modeling of both within a unified framework. To this end, we use concept of snapshots to decompose fact features into two complementary mechanisms: (a) intra-snapshot semantic coupling, where entities and relations exhibit snapshot-specific meanings through multidimensional interactions; (b) trans-snapshot evolutionary synergy, where relations between entities evolve across snapshots and manifest varying states. These snapshot mechanisms jointly reveal underlying logic of facts. To track them, we propose TeCES, a framework for high-fidelity modeling of evolving snapshots. TeCES embeds facts into a 2-grade geometric algebra (GA) system to capture complex semantics via multilevel structures. Temporal information is attached to each entity for mapping into snapshot spaces, while relations and timestamps are reconfigured into composite GA representations. Geometric products enable multidimensional interactions, revealing relation state changes over time. Lastly, the head entity at each snapshot combines with fused temporal-relational representation via geometric product to approximate the target tail entity at multiple levels. Overall, TeCES supports joint modeling of evolving snapshots within a lightweight GA system and significantly outperforms SOTA models on six benchmarks.
