TL;DR
This work tackles parametric non-selfadjoint eigenvalue problems by shifting focus from unstable eigenfunctions to the stable invariant eigensubspace. The Deep Eigenspace Network (DEN) combines Fourier neural operators with geometry-adaptive POD bases and a banded low-rank cross-mode mixer to capture inter-modal spectral couplings, enabling robust subspace prediction and subsequent Rayleigh-Ritz reconstruction of eigenpairs. The authors prove Lipschitz continuity of the eigensubspace with respect to parameters and derive eigenvalue reconstruction error bounds, and demonstrate strong zero-shot generalization across meshes and robustness to varying wavenumbers via subspace embedding. The approach offers a fast, discretization-agnostic surrogate for parametric Steklov problems with potential applications in MOR, GFEM enrichment, and inverse-scattering workflows.
Abstract
We consider operator learning for efficiently solving parametric non-selfadjoint eigenvalue problems. To overcome the spectral instability and mode switching inherent in non-selfadjoint operators, we introduce a hybrid framework that learns the stable invariant eigensubspace mapping rather than individual eigenfunctions. We proposed a Deep Eigenspace Network (DEN) architecture integrating Fourier Neural Operators, geometry-adaptive POD bases, and explicit banded cross-mode mixing mechanisms to capture complex spectral dependencies on unstructured meshes. We apply DEN to the parametric non-selfadjoint Steklov eigenvalue problem and provide theoretical proofs for the Lipschitz continuity of the eigensubspace with respect to the parameters. In addition, we derive error bounds for the reconstruction of the eigenspace. Numerical experiments validate DEN's high accuracy and zero-shot generalization capabilities across different discretizations.
