Euclidean Fourier Neural Operators

Euclidean Fourier Neural Operators (EFNOs) extend Fourier neural operators by making the spectral kernel a continuous function of physical wavevectors, thereby removing dependence on specific periodic domain shapes and sizes. This domain‑independent formulation allows EFNOs to learn operators that generalize across different grid resolutions and domain geometries. Experiments on a heat equation and a materials‑science task demonstrate that EFNOs can successfully transfer learned mappings to unseen grid sizes and crystal structures.

Learning Metamaterial Eigenmodes with Wavelet-Encoded Fourier Neural Operators

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.

Enforcing Dirichlet Boundary Conditions in Operator Learning

The paper introduces a neural operator architecture that inherently satisfies homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions by constraining each layer’s output to lie within the span of selected Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. This design works for any bounded domain with a Lipschitz boundary and any discretization, avoiding the restrictions of previous methods. The authors prove universal approximation for their architecture and demonstrate its effectiveness on Darcy flow and Helmholtz equation problems.

Can Deep Learning Achieve Cross-Physics Mapping?

The paper introduces Cross-Physics Mapping (CPM), an operator-learning framework that enables deep learning to translate physical fields governed by different equations. By aligning latent representations and applying a dimensionless scaling principle, CPM maps between heterogeneous domains such as diffusion and wave fields. Experiments with seven neural operator architectures show directional asymmetry: diffusion-to-wave mapping is harder, while wave-to-diffusion mapping is more stable, with neural operators outperforming conventional convolutional baselines.
