PRISMA: Improving the Accuracy-Latency Frontier of Diffusion-based PDE Solvers Using Physics-Informed Spectral Attention

arXiv:2512. 01370v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion-based solvers for partial differential equations (PDEs) are often bottle-necked by slow gradient-based test-time optimization routines that use PDE residuals for loss guidance.

Physics-informed diffusion models in spectral space

arXiv:2602. 09708v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose physics-informed spectral diffusion (PISD), a methodology that combines generative latent diffusion models with physics-informed machine learning to generate solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs) conditioned on partial observations, which includes, in particular, forward and inverse PDE problems.

Disentangling Attention in Deep Operator Learning: A Controlled Study of Data-Driven and Physics-Informed Architectures

The paper investigates how different attention mechanisms affect the performance of DeepONet neural operators. Five variants—varying in cross‑attention, self‑attention, tokenization, and attention depth—are trained in both data‑driven and physics‑informed settings on one‑ and two‑dimensional PDE benchmarks. Results show that per‑sensor tokenization with cross‑attention consistently reduces error, while branch self‑attention helps only in complex spatial problems, and deeper cross‑attention yields diminishing returns with higher cost.

Transolver-$\sigma$: Joint Spectral-Physical Subspace Modeling for Neural PDE Solving

Transolver‑σ is a neural PDE solver that jointly models spectral and physical subspaces to improve accuracy in both one‑step and autoregressive rollouts. The method uses adaptive physical-state interactions, Slice‑Residual Physics‑Attention, and an axis‑factorized Fourier operator to enable information exchange between representations. Across five standard PDE benchmarks, Transolver‑σ reduces benchmark‑averaged relative error by 33.4% compared to the strongest baseline and shows strong performance on coupled multiphysics systems and real‑world fluid and combustion data.

Error-Conditioned Neural Solvers

arXiv:2606. 27354v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural surrogate models offer fast approximate mappings from PDE parameters to solutions, but they typically treat solving as a purely statistical task: once trained, they struggle to correct their own constraint violations and extrapolate beyond the training distribution.

When Attention Beats Fourier: Multi-Scale Transformers for PDE Solving on Irregular Domains

arXiv:2605. 08318v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of \emph{architecture selection} for deep learning models trained to solve partial differential equations (PDEs), asking when transformer-based architectures with learned attention outperform Fourier-domain neural operators.

Residual Context Diffusion Language Models

arXiv:2601. 22954v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel.
