arXiv:2603. 18907v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose a new Neural Galerkin Normalizing Flow framework to approximate the transition probability density function of a diffusion process by solving the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation with an atomic initial distribution, parametrically with respect to the location of the initial mass.

arXiv:2512. 19196v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Solving high-dimensional Fokker-Planck (FP) equations remains a challenging problem in computational physics and stochastic dynamics, due to the curse of dimensionality, unbounded domains, and complex probability landscapes.

One of the primary challenges in Bayesian inference on the parameters of a diffusion model from discrete observations is the unavailability of an analytical expression for the transition density function between consecutive observation times, which is needed to derive the likelihood function. Extending previous studies that solve Fokker-Planck (FP) type partial differential equations with Normalizing Flows, we propose a new Normalizing Flow architecture to learn the transition density function of the diffusion process between two observation times.
The paper introduces a mesh‑free, self‑supervised neural operator—called the Normalizing Flow Invertible Solution Transformer (NFIST)—for stochastic mean‑field control (MFC). By reformulating the controlled Fokker–Planck dynamics as a deterministic continuity equation via a probability‑flow ODE and an invertible normalizing‑flow transformer, the authors enable closed‑form score evaluation with linear cost per particle. The resulting operator learns from task prompts (distribution parameters or particle clouds) and can solve unseen MFC tasks in a single forward pass, achieving zero‑shot generalization across applications such as stochastic optimal control, Schrödinger bridges, systemic‑risk control, and obstacle‑avoiding path planning.
