## Summary
Detectors that try to spot machine-written text in general depend on surface statistics. They break when the input distribution shifts, they are open to adversarial attack, and they can be biased against some writers. Watermarking avoids this by planting a hidden signal during generation. Existing schemes, however, can be removed through light editing or paraphrasing. The authors set out a formal framework that defines three properties of an LLM watermark: preserved output quality, error rates on both sides of detection, and robustness to post-hoc edits measured by edit distance. They then propose Unigram-Watermark. It simplifies the K-gram scheme of Kirchenbauer et al. by using one fixed Green-Red split of the vocabulary rather than a split tied to the prefix. They prove that the watermarked model stays close to the original in every Renyi divergence. They also prove that false-positive and false-negative rates shrink exponentially as the suspect text gets longer and more diverse, and that tolerance to edits is twice that of the baseline. Tests on three LLMs and two datasets show better detection under attack at similar perplexity. This makes provenance claims both checkable and harder to evade.

## Key points
- The core design change is a single global green/red vocabulary partition (K = 1). It replaces the partition re-derived from each preceding token in KGW+23. Most guarantees also carry over to K ≥ 2, except the Type II bound.
- The paraphrase attacks used ChatGPT, DIPPER, and BART (bart-large-cnn). On OpenGen with LLaMA-7B, AUC rose from 0.949 to 0.989 against ChatGPT paraphrasing and from 0.892 to 0.949 against BART summarization. Accuracy stayed above 85% at a 10% false-positive rate.
- Edit attacks on LFQA with LLaMA-7B covered synonym replacement, deletion, and swapping. With 50% of tokens swapped, AUC was 0.978 for Unigram-Watermark versus 0.702 for KGW+23.
- On human-written TOEFL essays collected by Liang et al., z-scores stayed well under the detection threshold of z = 6.0. This avoids the misclassification of non-native writers seen in commercial detectors.
- Code is released at github.com/XuandongZhao/Unigram-Watermark.
