MVNN: A Measure-Valued Neural Network for Learning McKean-Vlasov Dynamics from Particle Data

The paper introduces MVNN, a measure‑valued neural network designed to learn interaction forces in systems governed by McKean‑Vlasov dynamics directly from particle trajectory data. MVNN extends conventional neural networks to operate on probability measures by learning cylindrical features through an embedding network that maps distributions to scalable vector representations. The authors prove theoretical properties such as well‑posedness, propagation‑of‑chaos, universal approximation, and provide quantitative rates under low‑dimensional measure‑dependence, while demonstrating the method’s accuracy and strong out‑of‑distribution generalization on various first‑ and second‑order dynamical systems.

DeepSPoC: A Deep Learning Based Sequential Propagation of Chaos

DeepSPoC is a neural particle method that replaces direct particle-particle interactions in sequential propagation of chaos (SPoC) with particle‑network interactions, using a neural density representation (KRnet) to approximate the empirical measure. By simulating particles in batches and embedding a neural network into the mean‑field SDE coefficients, DeepSPoC reduces memory usage and computational cost compared to traditional particle methods. The approach is demonstrated on various mean‑field equations, showing improved scalability for high‑dimensional problems.

Drift-Diffusion Matching: Embedding dynamics in latent manifolds of asymmetric neural networks

arXiv:2602. 14885v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) provide a theoretical framework for understanding computation in biological neural circuits, yet classical results, such as Hopfield's model of associative memory, rely on symmetric connectivity that restricts network dynamics to gradient-like flows.

Langevin-Informed Transfer Learning: Replacing Target Samples by Black-Box Feedback

The paper introduces Langevin-Informed Transfer Learning (LITL), a method that recovers target Langevin dynamics from biased source samples using only black-box feedback. LITL learns the leading spectral structure of the target infinitesimal generator and the projected drift via Dirichlet representation learning, enabling kinetic reconstruction and slow-manifold gradient estimation. The authors provide finite-sample guarantees for eigenvalue, eigenfunction, and drift estimation, and demonstrate LITL’s ability to recover physical transition timescales, build kinetic structure from static generative samples, reconstruct spherical symmetries, and steer latent representations in trained neural networks.

Physics-Constrained Neural Surrogate for Domain Growth Prediction in Systems with Conserved Kinetics

The paper introduces a physics-constrained neural network surrogate that learns the microstructural evolution of binary mixtures governed by the Cahn‑Hilliard equation. By imposing conservation of the order parameter as a hard constraint on the network output, the model accurately predicts long‑time phase‑separation dynamics for both critical and off‑critical mixtures, maintaining mixture composition and matching the Lifshitz‑Slyozov domain‑growth law. A variant that enforces conservation only through a penalty term drifts from the initial composition and loses predictive accuracy over long rollouts, underscoring the necessity of the hard constraint for stability.

Recovering Irreducible Three-Body Interactions with Lagrangian Neural Networks

Lagrangian Neural Networks (LNNs) can learn irreducible three‑body interactions from trajectory data by parameterizing only the potential while prescribing kinetic energy. Using the Axilrod‑Teller triple‑dipole interaction as a test case, the authors show that a signal‑aware sampling strategy allows the LNN to recover the correct radial scaling, angular dependence, and sign reversal from accelerations alone. Symbolic regression on the trained potential reproduces the exact Axilrod‑Teller expression, demonstrating that LNNs can uncover closed‑form many‑body laws without prior functional assumptions.
