However, learning the solution operator of partial differential equations (PDEs) remains a challenge in scientific computing. Therefore, in this study, we propose a novel pseudo-differential integral operator (PDIO) inspired by a pseudo-differential operator, which is a generalization of a differential operator and characterized by a certain symbol. We parameterize the symbol by using a neural network and show that the neural-network-based symbol is contained in a smooth symbol class. Subsequently, we prove that the PDIO is a bounded linear operator, and thus is continuous in the Sobolev space. We combine the PDIO with the neural operator to develop a pseudo-differential neural operator (PDNO) to learn the nonlinear solution operator of PDEs. We experimentally validate the effectiveness of the proposed model by using Burgers' equation, Darcy flow, and the Navier-Stokes equation. The results reveal that the proposed PDNO outperforms the existing neural operator approaches in most experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-01-28T07:22:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35S05", "47G30", "68U07" ], "keywords": [ "partial differential equations", "learning solution operators", "novel pseudo-differential integral operator", "smooth symbol class", "pseudo-differential neural operator" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
