Differentiable simulation is a key component in learning, control, and inverse problems, where gradients through nonlinear implicit solvers are required. Existing approaches either rely on unrolled automatic differentiation, whose memory grows with solver depth, or on equation-level implicit differentiation, which assembles global Jacobians and solves large sparse adjoint systems, discarding the locality of the forward solver -- and differentiating the converged equation rather than the finite computation that actually ran.
arXiv:2606. 27895v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Differentiable partial differential equation (PDE) solvers underpin solver-in-the-loop ML training, gradient-based optimal control, and inverse problems, yet the practical cost of obtaining correct, usable gradients from a given solver on a given problem is largely undocumented.
