الوصف: In Artificial Intelligence (AI) and computational science, learning the mappings between functions (called operators) defined on complex computational domains is a common theoretical challenge. Recently, Neural Operator emerged as a promising framework with a discretisation-independent model structure to break the fixed-dimension limitation of classical deep learning models. However, existing operator learning methods mainly focus on regular computational domains, and many components of these methods rely on Euclidean structural data. In real-life applications, many operator learning problems are related to complex computational domains such as complex surfaces and solids, which are non-Euclidean and widely referred to as Riemannian manifolds. Here, we report a new concept, Neural Operator on Riemannian Manifolds (NORM), which generalises Neural Operator from being limited to Euclidean spaces to being applicable to Riemannian manifolds, and can learn the mapping between functions defined on any real-life complex geometries, while preserving the discretisation-independent model structure. NORM shifts the function-to-function mapping to finite-dimensional mapping in the Laplacian eigenfunctions' subspace of geometry, and holds universal approximation property in learning operators on Riemannian manifolds even with only one fundamental block. The theoretical and experimental analysis prove that NORM is a significant step forward in operator learning and has the potential to solve complex problems in many fields of applications sharing the same nature and theoretical principle.
