We introduce Flower, a neural architecture for learning PDE solution operators built entirely from multihead warps. Aside from pointwise channel mixing and a multiscale scaffold, Flowers use no Fourier multipliers, no dot-product attention, and no convolutional mixing. Each head predicts a displacem…
Many numerical algorithms in scientific computing—particularly in areas like numerical linear algebra, PDE simulation, and inverse problems—produce outputs that can be represented by semialgebraic functions; that is, the graph of the computed function can be described by finitely many polynomial equ…
In this work we consider the problem of discretization of neural operators in a general setting. Using category theory, we give a no-go theorem that shows that diffeomorphisms between Hilbert spaces may not admit any continuous approximations by diffeomorphisms on finite spaces, even if the discreti…
Recently there has been great interest in operator learning, where networks learn operators between function spaces from an essentially infinite-dimensional perspective. In this work we present results for when the operators learned by these networks are injective and surjective. As a warmup, we com…
We study approximation of probability measures supported on n-dimensional manifolds embedded in R^m by injective flows—neural networks composed of invertible flows and injective layers. We show that in general, injective flows between R^n and R^m universally approximate measures supported on images…
In this work, we consider the linear inverse problem $y=Ax+\varepsilon$, where $A\colon X\to Y$ is a known linear operator between the separable Hilbert spaces $X$ and $Y$, $x$ is a random variable in $X$ and $\epsilon$ is a zero-mean random process in $Y$. This setting covers several inverse proble…
