Stable by Construction: Variational Latent Markov Operators for Long-Horizon PDE Prediction

The paper introduces a variational framework called VAMO that incorporates latent Markov dynamics for neural PDE solvers, aiming to improve long‑horizon predictions by mitigating error accumulation. By representing physical states as latent distributions and evolving them through probabilistic transitions, the method aligns learned dynamics with a spectral geometry induced by structured Gaussian perturbations. Experiments on fluid‑dynamics benchmarks show that VAMO reduces error growth and enhances rollout stability compared to deterministic and noise‑injection baselines.

Same Target, Different Origins: Aligning Latent Rollout for Consistent PDE Emulation

The paper introduces Align Latent Rollout (ALR), a regularization technique for neural PDE solvers that encourages consistency across different rollout origins. ALR uses a second‑order Taylor analysis to define two objectives: zeroth‑order consistency aligning latent states at a shared target time, and first‑order consistency aligning local evolution responses to perturbations. The method can be applied to various neural PDE solvers without altering their architectures and demonstrates improved prediction accuracy and reduced discrepancies across rollout origins in multiple benchmarks.

Flux-form spatiotemporal neural operators for coarse-grained dynamics of multiscale PDEs

The paper introduces flux‑form spatiotemporal neural operators for predicting coarse‑grained dynamics of multiscale PDEs without relying on closure models. It learns a surrogate evolution operator from filtered high‑fidelity data, using Fourier convolution for spatial mixing and a causal kernel with time‑lag attention for temporal mixing. The method incorporates a flux‑form inductive bias to maintain conservation and provides a data‑driven rule for selecting memory length, achieving stable, accurate long‑horizon rollouts on benchmark equations and turbulent flow simulations.
