Rigorous Error Certification for Neural PDE Solvers: From Empirical Residuals to Solution Guarantees

The paper presents a theoretical framework for certifying the accuracy of physics‑informed neural networks (PINNs) used to solve partial differential equations. It derives generalization bounds that link the residual loss minimized during training to the actual error in the solution space, showing that if the neural approximation stays within a compact subset, a vanishing residual guarantees convergence to the true solution. Deterministic and probabilistic convergence results are provided, offering explicit error guarantees based on residual, boundary, and initial condition errors.

GPU-Parallel Linearization Error Bounds for Real-Time Robust Optimal Control of Nonlinear and Neural Network Dynamics

arXiv:2607. 01203v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper studies real-time robust optimal control for uncertain nonlinear systems, where linear time-varying (LTV) approximations make planning tractable but require sound linearization error bounds (LEBs) to guarantee robust constraint satisfaction.

RTS Smoother-Guided Learning of Physics-Based Neural Differential Models

arXiv:2607. 15180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are widely used to model dynamical systems in physics, biology, neuroscience, and physiology, but in many applications some equations of the dynamics are unknown and only a subset of the state variables are measured.
