The inverse design of physical systems governed by partial differential equations is computationally demanding due to the high dimensionality and non-convexity of design spaces. Generative models for inverse design often lack robustness and transferability, whereas evolutionary strategies are robust but struggle in high-dimensional spaces.

The paper presents Finite Basis Physics-Informed Neural Networks (FBPINNs) and their multilevel extensions as a new approach to solving the Helmholtz equation. By decomposing the computational domain into overlapping sub‑domains, each governed by a local neural network, the method aims to improve accuracy and computational efficiency for high‑frequency wave problems in complex two‑dimensional domains. The authors evaluate the technique on the homogeneous Helmholtz case, showing its potential to overcome limitations of traditional finite difference and finite element methods.

arXiv:2606. 12337v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) are central to computational mechanics and are commonly solved by adjoint-based optimization, while physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a flexible alternative.

Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) often fail to accurately resolve partial differential equations (PDEs) with high-frequency or multi-scale solutions, as well as strongly nonlinear problems. Two factors underlie this difficulty: spectral bias, the tendency of neural networks to underfit high-frequency features; and representation-coefficient coupling, the entanglement of representation learning and coefficient fitting within a single nonconvex optimization objective.

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.
