用随机性解决多智能体协作中的角色区分难题。

Full parameter sharing is standard in cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) for homogeneous agents. Under permutation-symmetric observations, however, a shared deterministic policy outputs identical action distributions for every agent, making role differentiation impossible. This failure can theoretically be resolved using symmetry breaking among anonymous identical processors, which requires randomness. We propose Diamond Attention, a cross-attention architecture in which each agent samples a scalar random number per timestep, inducing a transient rank ordering that masks lower-ranked peers from agent-to-agent attention while leaving task attention fully unmasked. This realizes a random-bit coordination protocol in a single broadcast round, and the set-based attention enables zero-shot deployment to teams of different sizes. We evaluate across three regimes that isolate when structured randomness matters. On the perfectly symmetric XOR game, our method achieves $1.0$ success while all deterministic baselines plateau near $0.5$. On control coordination tasks, a policy trained on $N=4$ generalizes zero-shot to $N \in [2,8]$. On SMACLite cross-scenario transfer, we achieve zero-shot transfer where standard baselines cannot transfer due to structural limitations. Furthermore, replacing the structured mask with standard dropout-based randomness results in a 0\% win rate, confirming that protocol-space structure, not stochastic noise, is the operative ingredient. https://anonymous.4open.science/r/randomness-137A/
