arXiv:2607. 10439v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We model human motor cortex, recorded during rest and motor-imagery BCI conditions, as a port-Hamiltonian system: a conservative interconnection (skew-symmetric coupling between band-limited neural phasors) together with a dissipative port whose state-dependent decay is set by a graph-neural-network surrogate.

arXiv:2609. 04549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) system serves as a simplified model of neuronal voltage dynamics, capturing the activator-inhibitor structure behind both isolated action potentials and the rhythmic spiking seen across the brain.

arXiv:2607. 10439v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a physics-inspired classical digital twin of brain-computer- interface (BCI) data: a graph neural network constrained to a band-stratified, metriplectic port-Hamiltonian form, with parameters learned from scalp EEG recorded during rest and motor imagery.

The paper investigates why latent neural surrogate solvers, which compress physical system dynamics into a lower‑dimensional space, often fail during long‑horizon autoregressive rollouts. It demonstrates that training the latent representation only for reconstruction leads to instability, and proposes a set of training interventions—Koopman operator learning, Hamming noise injection, and multi‑step rollout fine‑tuning—that align the latent space with long‑horizon forecasting. These interventions reduce long‑rollout error by about 40 % and achieve accuracy comparable to full‑resolution models while using far fewer floating‑point operations and GPU memory, enabling stable extrapolation in mesoscale crystal‑plasticity simulations of high‑cycle fatigue.

arXiv:2606. 27783v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continuous attractor neural networks (CANNs) are the canonical computational framework for how the brain encodes continuous variables such as spatial position, head direction, and movement direction, and explain the activity of hippocampal place cells, entorhinal grid cells, and head-direction cells.

The paper presents a neural operator that learns the Kohn–Sham map, directly predicting electron density from the Kohn–Sham potential without orbital diagonalization. Using a domain‑invariant SE(3)‑equivariant Fourier neural operator trained on 8,504 molecules and solids, the model achieves quasi‑linear scaling self‑consistent field (SCF) convergence across diverse systems—including organic molecules, insulators, and metals—while reproducing Kohn–Sham DFT accuracy for densities, spectra, and structural observables. This enables large‑scale simulations, such as magnesium dislocation densities with 82,500 valence electrons, on a single GPU.

The paper introduces a new method for simulating coupled dynamical systems that bypasses traditional time‑stepping. Instead of marching through time, each subsystem is represented by a neural surrogate that maps an entire driving trajectory and initial condition to a full output trajectory. Coupling is achieved by enforcing self‑consistency across these trajectories, turning the simulation into a fixed‑point problem over complete trajectories. Experiments on van der Pol oscillators and Hodgkin‑Huxley neuron networks show that only 4–10 Newton iterations are needed, compared to 1500 steps for a conventional integrator, and that the gradient can be computed without time recursion using GMRES. The spectral radius of the surrogate’s Jacobian predicts convergence, and the implicit gradient remains accurate even when unrolled backpropagation diverges.

Oscillatory dynamics arise ubiquitously in nonlinear systems, yet identifying a physically interpretable phase and phase dynamics in nonlinear, high-dimensional oscillations remains a central unresolved problem. Here we establish the principle of a universal dynamical clock, a physical perspective in which oscillations of arbitrary dimensionality and geometry are equivalently represented as uniform rotation through an equant-induced nonlinear viewing coordinate, inspired by Ptolemy's equant and formalised through an areal-uniformity principle reminiscent of Kepler's second law.
