Asymptotics of large deviations of finite difference method for stochastic Cahn--Hilliard equation

This paper establishes the Freidlin--Wentzell large deviations principle for the stochastic Cahn--Hilliard equation with small noise and proves the convergence of the one-point large deviations rate function for its spatial finite difference method by utilizing Γ\Gamma-convergence of objective functions and overcoming non-Lipschitz drift challenges through discrete interpolation inequalities.

Enabling stratified sampling in high dimensions via nonlinear dimensionality reduction

This paper proposes a method to enable effective stratified sampling in high-dimensional spaces by using neural active manifolds to identify a one-dimensional latent space that captures model variability, allowing for the creation of input partitions that align with model level sets to significantly reduce variance in uncertainty propagation.

The inverse initial data problem for anisotropic Navier-Stokes equations via Legendre time reduction method

This paper introduces a novel computational framework that utilizes Legendre time-dimensional reduction to transform the inverse initial-data problem for compressible anisotropic Navier-Stokes equations into a solvable system of elliptic equations, enabling the robust and accurate reconstruction of initial velocity fields from noisy boundary observations.

A structure-preserving discretisation of SO(3)-rotation fields for finite Cosserat micropolar elasticity

This paper introduces a novel Geometric Structure-Preserving Interpolation (Γ\Gamma-SPIN) method that utilizes geodesic elements and a projection-based relaxation of rotation-deformation coupling to achieve stable, locking-free finite-strain Cosserat micropolar elasticity simulations, particularly in the asymptotic couple-stress limit.

Comparison of Structure-Preserving Methods for the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes Equations

This paper introduces and validates two new structure-preserving discontinuous Galerkin methods, SWIPD-L and SIPGD-L, for the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate mobility, demonstrating that they achieve optimal convergence, preserve key physical properties like mass conservation and energy dissipation, and offer significant computational savings on adaptive meshes compared to existing approaches.

Improving the accuracy of physics-informed neural networks via last-layer retraining

This paper proposes a post-processing method that significantly improves the accuracy of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) by finding the best approximation in a function space associated with the network, achieving errors four to five orders of magnitude lower than standard PINNs while enabling transfer learning and providing a metric for optimal basis function selection.
