From Points to Edges: Edge-Conditioned Spectral Operators for Physics-Sensitive PDE Learning 文章

arXiv:2608.06894v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural operators have become a central tool for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), with spectral operators offering efficient global mixing across spatial locations. However, many PDEs contain physics-sensitive local structures that are critical to the underlying physical behavior. For example, in Darcy flow, local material interfaces are often reflected by sharp changes in the permeability field and can strongly influence the solution. Existing spectral operators primarily adapt modal mixing based on center-point representations, making them insufficiently responsive to such localized structural variations. We propose the Edge-Conditioned Spectral Operator (ESO), a novel spectral operator framework that modulates global spectral mixing using local edge-wise variations.
