The paper introduces Normalizing Flow Maps (NFM), a new class of exactly invertible pushforward maps that extend normalizing flows and flow maps by learning the integrator of an underlying dynamical system while enabling efficient exact likelihood evaluation. NFMs incorporate two consistency axes—pointwise matching for β1-based regression losses and distributional matching for aligning pushforward distributions with a forward process—allowing scalable training. Experiments on CIFAR-10, ImageNet-64, and Boltzmann Generators demonstrate that NFMs achieve state‑of‑the‑art sample quality among parameter‑matched normalizing flows and outperform prior normalizing flows on peptide benchmarks.

arXiv:2606. 30230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learned reconstruction operators for inverse problems are typically trained under a fixed noise model, and generalize poorly when the distribution during testing differs from the one assumed during training.

arXiv:2605. 15806v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural operators excel as deterministic surrogates, but inevitably collapse to the conditional mean when applied to stochastic PDEs, discarding the variance and tail structure upon which uncertainty quantification depends.

The paper introduces a kernel‑based operator learning method that preserves key physical properties—such as incompressibility, periodicity, and turbulence—of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. By mapping input functions to expansion coefficients in a property‑preserving kernel basis, the method guarantees that predicted velocity fields analytically maintain these properties. The authors provide theoretical convergence guarantees, develop efficient computational techniques for large‑scale training, and demonstrate significant accuracy and speed improvements over neural operators on 2D and 3D flow benchmarks.

arXiv:2410. 01244v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a novel Wasserstein-1 ($W_1$) path-space divergence for stochastic and deterministic dynamics and establish a Wasserstein Uncertainty Propagation (WUP) theorem that bounds the $W_1$ distance between terminal distributions by the proposed divergence, equivalently characterized by a weighted $L^2$ discrepancy between the underlying drifts and the $W_1$ distance between their initial measures.

The paper introduces a new optimal transport framework that uses the Barron energy—an intrinsic neural network complexity measure—instead of the traditional kinetic energy. By modeling transport as deep residual networks that map a reference distribution to a target distribution, the authors define a new metric on probability measures and analyze its properties for generative modeling. They demonstrate that diffusion generative models are suboptimal in this Barron geometry and explore how adaptivity can improve alternative generative approaches.
