arXiv:2603. 12676v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generalizing neural surrogate models across different PDE parameters remains difficult because changes in PDE coefficients often make learning harder and optimization less stable.

Neural PDE solvers provide efficient surrogates for time-dependent physical systems, but autoregressive prediction over long horizons remains challenging because local errors can induce distribution s...
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.

The paper investigates why latent neural surrogate solvers, which compress physical system dynamics into a lower‑dimensional space, often fail during long‑horizon autoregressive rollouts. It demonstrates that training the latent representation only for reconstruction leads to instability, and proposes a set of training interventions—Koopman operator learning, Hamming noise injection, and multi‑step rollout fine‑tuning—that align the latent space with long‑horizon forecasting. These interventions reduce long‑rollout error by about 40 % and achieve accuracy comparable to full‑resolution models while using far fewer floating‑point operations and GPU memory, enabling stable extrapolation in mesoscale crystal‑plasticity simulations of high‑cycle fatigue.
