The paper introduces the Local Gradient Neural Operator (LGNO), a lightweight and interpretable neural operator designed for field temporal evolution prediction and source identification in mechanical problems. LGNO leverages nonlinear gradient discretization priors and multilayer perceptron convolutional layers to learn translation‑invariant local kernels resembling discrete stencils, with a zero‑consistent stencil factorization that separates coefficient learning from field reconstruction. Experiments on a range of PDE benchmarks—including linear, nonlinear, static, dynamic, low‑ and high‑dimensional cases—demonstrate that LGNO achieves comparable accuracy to global neural operators while using fewer parameters and maintaining rollout stability across diffusion, flow, and quantum phenomena.

The paper introduces two multi-stage neural operator learning frameworks—Deep Collocation Neural Operator (DCNO) and Deep Galerkin Neural Operator (DGNO)—for efficiently computing convolution integrals. DCNO is a supervised method that iteratively refines operator approximations by learning residuals from data pairs, while DGNO is an unsupervised approach that uses the weak form of a PDE residual when the operator can be represented by a PDE. Both frameworks build basis operators across multiple training stages, yielding markedly higher accuracy than one-shot learning and achieving near machine‑precision results for convolution problems, with significant efficiency gains for repeated queries or parametric variations.

The paper presents a method to recover unknown functional terms in partial differential equations (PDEs) by embedding neural networks into standard parameter estimation workflows. By training on data, the approach learns interaction kernels and external potentials in nonlocal aggregation‑diffusion equations, achieving high accuracy. The study systematically investigates how reconstruction accuracy depends on solution diversity, sampling density, and measurement noise.

PDE-PFN is a prior‑data fitted neural solver that uses in‑context learning to approximate the posterior predictive mean of partial differential equation (PDE) solutions. It builds on a Transformer‑based PFN architecture with self‑ and cross‑attention, and is pre‑trained on noisy approximate solutions generated by physics‑informed neural networks. Experiments on various two‑dimensional PDEs show that PDE‑PFN generalizes across heterogeneous equations, remains robust to noisy priors, and can perform zero‑gradient‑update inference while achieving competitive or better predictive accuracy compared to baselines.
