Weak Adversarial Neural Pushforward Method for the Wigner Transport Equation

In this paper, we extend a weak adversary neural network pushforward method for solving time dependent Boltzmann equation and a weak formulation of the collision operator is proposed where an invertible neural pushforward mapping is used to generating samples given by the distribution governed by the Boltzmann equation. The training of the pushforward mapping is learnt by enforcing the weak form of the Boltzmann equation. Numerical results have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Neural quantum states (NQS) provide a flexible and scalable framework for approximating quantum many-body wavefunctions. Among NQS parameterizations, autoregressive models are especially attractive because they enable exact, independent sampling from the Born distribution, avoiding the autocorrelation and mixing issues of Markov chain methods. Yet their optimization remains comparatively underexplored: Adam is a scalable method but ignores function space geometry, while stochastic reconfiguration is principled but costly and numerically fragile in large models. To address this gap, we show that variational energy minimization can be viewed as an advantage policy-gradient problem over the Born distribution, motivating trust-region optimization for NQS training. We introduce Proximal Wavefunction Optimization (PWO), a principled trust-region algorithm that clips probability-ratio changes in the amplitude channel and phase increments in the phase channel. PWO avoids explicit matrix inversion, reuses samples across multiple updates, and combines the scalability of first-order optimization with theoretical guarantees. Across Ising and frustrated $J_1$-$J_2$ one- and two-dimensional spin systems, PWO improves stability and wall-clock convergence over Adam, minSR, and SPRING. Finally, we fine-tune a $1.5$B-parameter RWKV-7 model, demonstrating NQS optimization at a scale over three orders of magnitude beyond prior work.

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are central to modeling physical and engineering systems, but repeatedly solving parametric PDEs remains computationally expensive. Operator learning enables fast surrogate inference, yet typically requires large input-output paired datasets generated by costly high-fidelity PDE solvers. Unsupervised operator learning frameworks alleviate data dependency but remain hindered by computational bottlenecks. To address this, we propose Neural Variational Quantum Linear Solver (NVQLS), the first hybrid quantum-classical operator learning framework leveraging the Legendre--Galerkin weak formulation. We critically resolve the sign ambiguity in VQLS energy minimization, preventing erroneous solution representations. Additionally, we introduce a neural embedding, a novel encoding scheme to map varying forcings and PDE coefficients into parameterized quantum circuit representations. These structural innovations provide theoretical computational complexity advantages under efficient state preparation schemes, while achieving superior accuracy compared to a representative classical baseline. Validations on 1D and 2D parametric PDEs under diverse boundary conditions demonstrate NVQLS's capability to simultaneously process varying inputs, offering a scalable unsupervised approach to quantum-enhanced operator learning.
