AdamFLIP: Adaptive Momentum Feedback Linearization Optimization for Hard Constrained PINN Training

Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) provide a flexible framework for solving forward and inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), but standard PINN training typically relies on soft penalty formulations that combine PDE residuals, data mismatch, and initial/boundary conditions using manually chosen weights. This often leads to ill-conditioning, sensitivity to loss weights, and poor constraint satisfaction. In this work, we reformulate PINN training as an equality-constrained optimization problem and propose a novel Adaptive Momentum Feedback Linearization Optimization for Hard Constrained PINN (AdamFLIP). The key idea is to view the constraint residuals as the output of a controlled dynamical system and to compute the Lagrange multiplier as a feedback input that locally drives these residuals toward stable linear contraction dynamics. AdamFLIP then applies Adam-style first- and second-moment adaptation to the resulting feedback-linearized Lagrangian gradient, combining principled constraint handling with the scalability and robustness of adaptive neural-network optimization. We test AdamFLIP on a range of benchmark forward and inverse PDE problem, and it consistently outperforms both the standard soft-constrained PINN and state-of-the-art constrained optimizers. Specifically, on the Navier--Stokes equations benchmark, AdamFLIP \textbf{reduces relative $L_2$ error by more than two thirds} for the predicted solution compared to the next best method. Our AdamFLIP framework provides an effective and computationally scalable hard constraint optimization method for PINN training.

Chain of Risk: Safety Failures in Large Reasoning Models and Mitigation via Adaptive Multi-Principle Steering

Large reasoning models (LRMs) increasingly expose chain-of-thought-like reasoning for transparency, verification, and deliberate problem solving. This creates a safety blind spot: harmful or policy-violating content may appear in reasoning traces even when final answers appear safe. We test whether final-answer safety is a sufficient proxy for the full reasoning-answer trajectory by scoring both stages under a unified twenty-principle safety rubric. Using prompts from seven public harmfulness and jailbreak sources, plus four out-of-distribution (OOD) sources, we evaluate 15 open-weight and API-based LRMs across 41K prompts per model. Reasoning traces consistently reveal additional safety risks beyond final answers, especially in high-severity stage-wise failures: leak cases, where unsafe reasoning precedes a safe-looking answer, and escape cases, where benign-looking reasoning precedes an unsafe final response. Principle-level analysis shows that risk concentrates in misinformation, legal compliance, discrimination, physical harm, and psychological harm. We further propose adaptive multi-principle steering, a white-box test-time mitigation that learns one unsafe-to-safe activation direction per safety principle and activates only directions whose current hidden state is closer to the unsafe than safe centroid. On three steerable open reasoning models, adaptive steering reduces unsafe counts in both reasoning traces and final answers on held-out and OOD benchmarks. DeepSeek-R1-Qwen-7B achieves a 40.8% average unsafe-count reduction while retaining 97.7% macro-averaged accuracy on BBH, GSM8K, and MMLU. These results suggest that LRM safety should be evaluated and mitigated over the full exposed reasoning-answer trajectory, not only at the final-answer stage.

fPINN-DeepONet: A Physics-Informed Operator Learning Framework for Multi-term Time-fractional Mixed Diffusion-wave Equations

In this paper, we develop a physics-informed deep operator learning framework for solving multi-term time-fractional mixed diffusion-wave equations (TFMDWEs). We begin by deriving an $L_2$ approximation, which achieves first-order accuracy for the Caputo fractional derivative of order $β\in (1,2)$. Building upon this foundation, we propose the fPINN-DeepONet framework, a novel approach that integrates operator learning with the $L_2$ approximation to efficiently solve fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs). Our framework is successfully applied to both fixed and variable fractional-order PDEs, demonstrating the framework's versatility and broad applicability. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, we conduct a series of numerical experiments that involve dynamically varying fractional orders in both space and time, as well as scenarios with noisy data. These results highlight the accuracy, robustness, and efficiency of the fPINN-DeepONet framework.

Muon-OGD: Muon-based Spectral Orthogonal Gradient Projection for LLM Continual Learning

A central challenge in continual learning for large language models (LLMs) is catastrophic forgetting, where adapting to new tasks can substantially degrade performance on previously learned ones. Existing projection-based methods mitigate such interference by restricting parameter updates to subspaces that are orthogonal to directions associated with past tasks. However, these methods are typically formulated under Euclidean parameter geometry, with update magnitudes and projections governed by the Frobenius norm. The recent empirical success of the Muon optimizer, which applies orthogonalized matrix updates and admits a spectral-norm interpretation, suggests that Frobenius geometry may not be the most effective choice for matrix-valued LLM parameters. Motivated by this observation, we propose Muon-OGD, a spectral-norm-aware continual learning framework that integrates Muon-style operator-norm geometry with orthogonal projection constraints. Our method formulates each update as a spectral-norm-constrained optimization problem with linear non-interference constraints, and solves it efficiently through dual iterations and Newton--Schulz matrix-sign approximations. By applying orthogonalized momentum updates that avoid protected directions associated with prior tasks, Muon-OGD aims to improve the stability--plasticity trade-off in sequential LLM adaptation. We evaluate the proposed method on standard continual learning benchmarks, TRACE, and domain-specific Coding--Math--Medical curricula using both encoder--decoder and decoder-only architectures. Empirically, Muon-OGD consistently improves over sequential fine-tuning and competitive orthogonal-gradient baselines, while remaining computationally scalable. These results suggest that spectral-norm-aware update geometry provides a practical and effective alternative to Frobenius-norm projection for continual learning in LLMs.
