Data-Free Asymptotics-Informed Operator Networks for Singularly Perturbed PDEs

Recent advances in machine learning (ML) have opened new possibilities for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), yet robust performance in challenging regimes remains limited. In particular, singularly perturbed differential equations exhibit sharp boundary or interior layers with rapid transitions, where standard ML surrogates often fail without extensive resolution. Generating training data for such problems is also costly, as accurate reference solutions typically require massive adaptive mesh refinement. In this work, we propose eFEONet, an enriched Finite Element Operator Network tailored to singularly perturbed problems. Guided by classical singular perturbation theory, eFEONet augments the operator-learning framework with specialized enrichment basis functions that encode the asymptotic structure of layer solutions. This design enables accurate approximation of sharp transitions without relying on large datasets, and can operate with minimal supervision-or even in a data-free manner under appropriate settings. We further provide a rigorous convergence analysis of the proposed method and demonstrate its effectiveness through extensive experiments on representative problems featuring both boundary and interior layers.

Discontinuous Galerkin finite element operator network for solving non-smooth PDEs

We introduce Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Operator Network (DG--FEONet), a data-free operator learning framework that combines the strengths of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method with neural networks to solve parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) with discontinuous coefficients and non-smooth solutions. Unlike traditional operator learning models such as DeepONet and Fourier Neural Operator, which require large paired datasets and often struggle near sharp features, our approach minimizes the residual of a DG-based weak formulation using the Symmetric Interior Penalty Galerkin (SIPG) scheme. DG-FEONet predicts element-wise solution coefficients via a neural network, enabling data-free training without the need for precomputed input-output pairs. We provide theoretical justification through convergence analysis and validate the model's performance on a series of one- and two-dimensional PDE problems, demonstrating accurate recovery of discontinuities, strong generalization across parameter space, and reliable convergence rates. Our results highlight the potential of combining local discretization schemes with machine learning to achieve robust, singularity-aware operator approximation in challenging PDE settings.

Semi-Supervised Neural Super-Resolution for Mesh-Based Simulations

Mesh-based simulations provide high-fidelity solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs), but achieving such accuracy typically requires fine meshes, leading to substantial computational overhead. Super-resolution techniques aim to mitigate this cost by reconstructing high-resolution (HR), high-fidelity solutions from low-cost, low-resolution (LR) counterparts. However, training neural networks for super-resolution often demands large amounts of expensive HR supervision data. To address this challenge, we propose SuperMeshNet, an HR data-efficient super-resolution framework for mesh-based simulations aided by message passing neural networks (MPNNs). At its core, SuperMeshNet introduces complementary learning, a semi-supervised approach that effectively leverages both 1) a small amount of paired LR-HR data and 2) abundant unpaired LR data via two jointly trained, complementary MPNN-based models. Additionally, our model is enriched by inductive biases, which are empirically shown to further improve super-resolution performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SuperMeshNet requires 90% less HR data to achieve even lower root mean square error (RMSE) than that of the fully supervised benchmark without the inductive biases. The source code and datasets are available at https://github.com/jykim-git/SuperMeshNet.git.

Sobolev Approximation of Deep ReLU Networks in Log-Barron Space

Universal approximation theorems show that neural networks can approximate any continuous function; however, the number of parameters may grow exponentially with the ambient dimension, so these results do not fully explain the practical success of deep models on high-dimensional data. Barron space theory addresses this: if a target function belongs to a Barron space, a two-layer network with $n$ parameters achieves an $O(n^{-1/2})$ approximation error in $L^2$. Yet classical Barron spaces $\mathscr{B}^{s+1}$ still require stronger regularity than Sobolev spaces $H^s$, and existing depth-sensitive results often assume constraints such as $sL \le 1/2$. In this paper, we introduce a log-weighted Barron space $\mathscr{B}^{\log}$, which requires a strictly weaker assumption than $\mathscr{B}^s$ for any $s>0$. For this new function space, we first study embedding properties and carry out a statistical analysis via the Rademacher complexity. Then we prove that functions in $\mathscr{B}^{\log}$ can be approximated by deep ReLU networks with explicit depth dependence. We then define a family $\mathscr{B}^{s,\log}$, establish approximation bounds in the $H^1$ norm, and identify maximal depth scales under which these rates are preserved. Our results clarify how depth reduces regularity requirements for efficient representation, offering a more precise explanation for the performance of deep architectures beyond the classical Barron setting, and for their stable use in high-dimensional problems used today.

Semi-analytic PINN methods for singularly perturbed boundary value problems

We propose a new semi-analytic physics informed neural network (PINN) to solve singularly perturbed boundary value problems. The PINN is a scientific machine learning framework that offers a promising perspective for finding numerical solutions to partial differential equations. The PINNs have shown impressive performance in solving various differential equations including time-dependent and multi-dimensional equations involved in a complex geometry of the domain. However, when considering stiff differential equations, neural networks in general fail to capture the sharp transition of solutions, due to the spectral bias. To resolve this issue, here we develop the semi-analytic PINN methods, enriched by using the so-called corrector functions obtained from the boundary layer analysis. Our new enriched PINNs accurately predict numerical solutions to the singular perturbation problems. Numerical experiments include various types of singularly perturbed linear and nonlinear differential equations.
