Transferability of Learned States in Neural PDE Solvers

The paper introduces a framework for evaluating how well learned states from neural PDE solvers can be reused in new contexts. By separating solution accuracy, learning contribution, and numerical utility through paired state comparisons and cost accounting, the authors audit 12 papers and conduct experiments on linear PDE families, Fourier neural operators, and convolutional networks. Their results show that matched state comparisons and downstream computational evidence can lead to significant savings in conjugate‑gradient iterations and demonstrate finite‑budget pretraining value.

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.
