用改进的洛伦兹激活函数加速求解动态密度泛函理论中的非局域方程

We develop a physics-informed neural network (PINN) framework for nonlocal partial differential equations arising in dynamic density functional theory (DDFT). Such equations are challenging for standard PINN methods because they involve nonlinearities, nonlocal interaction terms, and an underlying gradient-flow structure, often leading to slow convergence and difficult optimization. We adapt the PINN methodology to DDFT gradient-flow equations and introduce two computational components: a modified Lorentzian activation function that behaves approximately linearly for small inputs and decays toward zero as the input magnitude increases, and a precomputed discrete operator for evaluating the nonlocal convolution term efficiently during training. The method is tested on four examples in one and two space dimensions. In the first example, the exact stationary solution is known, while in the remaining cases the neural-network approximations are validated against reference solutions computed using continuous and discontinuous Galerkin finite element discretizations. Accuracy and physical consistency are assessed through $L^1$, $L^2$, and $L^\infty$ errors, together with mass conservation and free-energy dissipation. The results show that the proposed activation function accelerates convergence relative to the standard $\tanh$ function, while the overall framework maintains good agreement with the reference solutions and captures the expected gradient-flow behaviour. These findings demonstrate the potential of the proposed PINN framework for solving nonlocal gradient-flow equations arising in DDFT.
