Deflation-PINNs: Learning Multiple Solutions for PDEs and Landau-de Gennes
- 在PINN损失函数中加入去重项,引导网络寻找不同解分支。
- 单次运行可找到6个稳定晶体结构,精度达百分之一水平。
- 适合研究多解问题的物理系统,如液晶相变与非线性方程求解。
非线性偏微分方程(PDE)广泛存在于数学物理与工程中。尽管物理信息神经网络(PINNs)已成为求解PDE的强大工具,但通常只能找到单一解,难以发现多个不同解。为此,本文提出Deflation-PINNs,将去重损失与基于PINNs和深度算子网络(DeepONets)的架构结合。通过在损失函数中引入去重项,该方法系统地引导模型收敛至有限个不同的解分支。我们给出了模型逼近能力的理论结果,并通过数值实验验证了其有效性:在液晶的Landau-de Gennes模型(具有复杂能量景观和多个平衡态)及已知解集的Allen-Cahn基准问题上,单次无监督运行成功恢复全部六个稳定状态,每个解分支均位于不同平衡点的吸引域内;后续通过纯神经网络的Deflation--Deep-Ritz阶段将解精度提升至百分之一级,再经经典求解器初始化后达到网格收敛参考解的精度。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) are ubiquitous in mathematical physics and engineering. Although Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for solving PDE problems, they typically struggle to identify multiple distinct solutions, since they are designed to find one solution at a time. To address this limitation, we introduce Deflation-PINNs, a novel framework that integrates a deflation loss with an architecture based on PINNs and Deep Operator Networks (DeepONets). By incorporating a deflation term into the loss function, our method systematically forces the Deflation-PINN to seek and converge upon distinct finitely many solution branches. We provide theoretical results on the approximation capabilities of our model and demonstrate the efficacy of Deflation-PINNs through numerical experiments on the Landau-de Gennes model of liquid crystals, a system renowned for its complex energy landscape and multiple equilibrium states, and on an Allen--Cahn benchmark whose solution set is provably known. Our results show that Deflation-PINNs can successfully identify and characterize multiple distinct crystal structures: a single unsupervised run recovers all six stable states of the benchmark, each branch certified to lie in the basin of attraction of a different equilibrium, and the discovered branches are refined to percent-level accuracy by a purely neural Deflation--Deep-Ritz stage and to the accuracy of a mesh-converged reference by a classical solver that they initialize.
