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.

arXiv:2604. 07366v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Partial differential equations (PDEs) govern nearly every physical process in science and engineering, but solving them at scale remains prohibitively expensive.
arXiv:2606. 27354v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural surrogate models offer fast approximate mappings from PDE parameters to solutions, but they typically treat solving as a purely statistical task: once trained, they struggle to correct their own constraint violations and extrapolate beyond the training distribution.
arXiv:2607. 00196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many scientific systems exhibit uncertainty from stochastic forcing, unresolved degrees of freedom, or imperfect observations, making reliable surrogate forecasting fundamentally distributional rather than pointwise.
