Existing evaluations of neural operators and in-context operator learning rely primarily on prediction error, but accurate output prediction does not guarantee the correct local dynamical structure. A model may match solutions while exhibiting incorrect sensitivities, distorted frequency response, spurious mode coupling, or unstable tangent behavior.

The paper introduces a method that combines Fourier Neural Operators with wavelet-based encodings to learn and predict multiple eigenmodes of the elastic wave equation in metamaterials. By encoding PDE inputs with wavelets, the model can deterministically select eigenmodes for both continuous and binary geometries, and it explains how prediction accuracy depends on geometric discontinuities. The surrogate model achieves a three‑order‑of‑magnitude speedup over finite element analysis while maintaining high fidelity, offering a powerful tool for accelerating metamaterial design.

Euclidean Fourier Neural Operators (EFNOs) extend Fourier neural operators by making the spectral kernel a continuous function of physical wavevectors, thereby removing dependence on specific periodic domain shapes and sizes. This domain‑independent formulation allows EFNOs to learn operators that generalize across different grid resolutions and domain geometries. Experiments on a heat equation and a materials‑science task demonstrate that EFNOs can successfully transfer learned mappings to unseen grid sizes and crystal structures.
