I'm very excited to introduce P3D: our PDE-Transformer architecture in 3 dimensions by . Demonstrated for unprecedented 512^3 resolutions! That means the Transformer produces over 400 million degrees of freedom in one go 😀 a regime that was previously out of reach: arxiv.org/abs/2509.10186

Congratulations to Bjoern for his accepted PoF paper on equivariant GraphNets 👍 doi.org/10.1063/5.02...
the core idea is a very generic and powerful one: we compute a local Eigenbasis from flow features for equivariance. Mathematically it's identical to previous approaches, but faster and simpler 😅

I also wanted to mention that our paper detailing the differentiable SPH solver by Rene is online now on arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2507.21684 If you're interested in fast and efficient neighborhoods, differentiable SPH operators and neat first optimization and learning tasks, please take a look!

Congratulations to Bernhard for his first #SIGGRAPH paper! Great work 👍 His two-phase Navier-Stokes solver is even more impressive given the fact that it's all done on a regular workstation, and without a GPU. Enjoy the sims in full screen & hi-quality here: youtu.be/nt9BohngvoE

Simulating fluids is hard, and learning 3D closure models even harder: This is where PICT comes in — a GPU-accelerated, fully differentiable fluid solver for PyTorch 🥳

The full PBDL book is available in a single PDF now arxiv.org/pdf/2109.05237, and has grown to 451 pages 😳 Enjoy all the new highlights on generative models, simulation-based constraints and long term stability with diffusion models 😁

Congratulations to Kanishk and Felix 👍 for their #ICLR'25 paper "Progressively Refined Differentiable Physics" kanishkbh.github.io/prdp-paper/ , the key insight is that training can be accelerated substantially by using fast approximates of the gradient (especially in early phases of training)
