SymbolLKG: Towards Verifiable Logical Reasoning via Logical Knowledge Graph and Symbolic Solvers

Abstract

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable proficiency in natural language understanding, yet they struggle with strict multi-step reasoning, frequently suffering from hallucinations and inconsistency. Existing solutions like Chain-of-Thought (CoT) lack rigorous verification mechanisms, while standard Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) often misses the complex, structural dependencies inherent in logical tasks. To bridge this gap, we propose a Neuro-Symbolic architecture that integrates a Logical Knowledge Graph (LKG) with dynamic solver routing. Specifically, we introduce an ontology-based LKG that treats logical rules and constraints as first-class topological nodes, enabling explicit modeling of dependencies extracted from text. We further design a Logic Router to dynamically dispatch tasks to the optimal symbolic engine, which is supported by a topology-aware hybrid retrieval mechanism. Experimental results on logical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that our framework significantly outperforms state-of-the-art prompting and RAG baselines, delivering higher accuracy and verifiable reasoning paths.
