The paper introduces a method to amortize physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) across related partial differential equations (PDEs) by explicitly modeling equation relationships in an operator graph. Coefficient vectors encode numerical parameters, while the graph hypernetwork generates diagonal codes that initialize a meta‑trained factorized PINN for each target equation. Experiments on scalar convection‑diffusion‑reaction, two‑field Fisher‑KPP, and a capacitively coupled plasma model show that term‑based descriptors and graph conditioning improve solution accuracy compared to coefficient‑vector conditioning, especially for high‑reaction and coupled systems.

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.
arXiv:2608. 04778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) incorporate governing equations into neural-network training and can approximate PDE solutions without requiring large observational datasets.
The paper introduces a linearized Physics-Informed Neural Network (lPINN), a reduced‑order neural basis approach for solving forward and inverse differential equations. In an offline phase, lPINN learns continuous, differentiable neural basis functions from numerical solutions, which are then frozen for new problem instances; the online solution is obtained by minimizing the governing‑equation residual with additional constraints. Experiments on advection‑diffusion, Burgers', and nonlinear pendulum equations show that lPINN achieves lower solution and parameter errors than vanilla PINNs while reducing online inference times by up to three orders of magnitude, and its continuous representation generalizes to finer meshes without retraining.
arXiv:2606. 04420v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) approximate solutions of ODEs and PDEs by minimising a weighted combination of residual, boundary, initial, and data losses.
Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) provide a meshless approach for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), but suffer severe degradation in stiff and shock-dominated problems, where small PDE residuals can correspond to globally inaccurate solutions. We show these failures are multi-causal, arising from the concurrent interplay of (i) spectral bias against sharp features, (ii) imbalanced multi-term optimization and loss-weight collapse, (iii) violation of temporal causality, and (iv) under-resolved collocation.
arXiv:2606. 11258v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient-based inversion of reaction-diffusion systems is typically approached via surrogate models or physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), while the most direct route, backpropagation through the PDE's structure itself, has largely been avoided.
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.

The paper identifies a problem called Gradient-Update Mismatch (GUM), where optimizers can alter conflict-free gradient directions produced by gradient surgery, leading to conflicts between physics residual and boundary condition losses in Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). To address this, the authors propose Gradient-Update Alignment (GUA), which projects the optimizer’s update onto the conflict-free cone and adjusts internal optimizer state accordingly. Experiments show GUM is common across many optimizers, and GUA consistently eliminates conflicts and significantly reduces error in PINN training.
