arXiv:2608.00991v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper introduces SCHEDBench, a natural-language benchmark for evaluating combinatorial scheduling constraint faithfulness under surface-form variation. Grounded in canonical scheduling instances and solver-derived feasibility and optimality, SCHEDBench assesses whether large language models (LLMs) generate schedules with the same constraint-feasible behavior across varied natural-language (NL) surface forms. SCHEDBench spans 1,132 instances across job-shop scheduling problems (JSP), single and multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problems (RCPSP), nurse rostering/scheduling, and curriculum timetabling problems of varying difficulty. Instances are templated into natural language problems using domain-specific templates, themed entities, lexical-syntactic template rephrasing, and constraint-level surface-form variation, with reference solutions verified for feasibility and objective optimality. Across thirteen frontier and open-weight LLMs, we find that models are not reliably invariant to semantically equivalent renderings of the same scheduling problem. Surface-form variation reduces feasibility and induces above-noise shifts in per-instance hard-constraint violations on matched instances. Among the tested isolated axes, constraint reordering yields the clearest above-noise sensitivity.
