    In this paper, we give a proof for four color theorem(four color conjecture). Our proof does not involve computer assistance and the most important is that it can be generalized to prove Hadwiger Conjecture. Moreover, we give algorithms to color and test planarity of planar graphs, which can be generalized to graphs containing Kx(x>5)K_x(x>5) minor. There are four parts of this paper: Part-1: To Prove Four Color Theorem Part-2: An Equivalent Statement of Hadwiger Conjecture when k=5k=5 Part-3: A New Proof of Wagner's Equivalence Theorem Part-4: A Geometric View of Outerplanar GraphComment: The paper is further reduced, and each part is more self-contained, is the fina

    TSONN: Time-stepping-oriented neural network for solving partial differential equations

    Full text link
    Deep neural networks (DNNs), especially physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), have recently become a new popular method for solving forward and inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). However, these methods still face challenges in achieving stable training and obtaining correct results in many problems, since minimizing PDE residuals with PDE-based soft constraint make the problem ill-conditioned. Different from all existing methods that directly minimize PDE residuals, this work integrates time-stepping method with deep learning, and transforms the original ill-conditioned optimization problem into a series of well-conditioned sub-problems over given pseudo time intervals. The convergence of model training is significantly improved by following the trajectory of the pseudo time-stepping process, yielding a robust optimization-based PDE solver. Our results show that the proposed method achieves stable training and correct results in many problems that standard PINNs fail to solve, requiring only a simple modification on the loss function. In addition, we demonstrate several novel properties and advantages of time-stepping methods within the framework of neural network-based optimization approach, in comparison to traditional grid-based numerical method. Specifically, explicit scheme allows significantly larger time step, while implicit scheme can be implemented as straightforwardly as explicit scheme

    The role of binding site on the mechanical unfolding mechanism of ubiquitin.

    We apply novel atomistic simulations based on potential energy surface exploration to investigate the constant force-induced unfolding of ubiquitin. At the experimentally-studied force clamping level of 100 pN, we find a new unfolding mechanism starting with the detachment between β5 and β3 involving the binding site of ubiquitin, the Ile44 residue. This new unfolding pathway leads to the discovery of new intermediate configurations, which correspond to the end-to-end extensions previously seen experimentally. More importantly, it demonstrates the novel finding that the binding site of ubiquitin can be responsible not only for its biological functions, but also its unfolding dynamics. We also report in contrast to previous single molecule constant force experiments that when the clamping force becomes smaller than about 300 pN, the number of intermediate configurations increases dramatically, where almost all unfolding events at 100 pN involve an intermediate configuration. By directly calculating the life times of the intermediate configurations from the height of the barriers that were crossed on the potential energy surface, we demonstrate that these intermediate states were likely not observed experimentally due to their lifetimes typically being about two orders of magnitude smaller than the experimental temporal resolution

    A solver for subsonic flow around airfoils based on physics-informed neural networks and mesh transformation

    Full text link
    Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have recently become a new popular method for solving forward and inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). However, in the flow around airfoils, the fluid is greatly accelerated near the leading edge, resulting in a local sharper transition, which is difficult to capture by PINNs. Therefore, PINNs are still rarely used to solve the flow around airfoils. In this study, we combine physical-informed neural networks with mesh transformation, using neural network to learn the flow in the uniform computational space instead of physical space. Mesh transformation avoids the network from capturing the local sharper transition and learning flow with internal boundary (wall boundary). We successfully solve inviscid flow and provide an open-source subsonic flow solver for arbitrary airfoils. Our results show that the solver exhibits higher-order attributes, achieving nearly an order of magnitude error reduction over second-order finite volume methods (FVM) on very sparse meshes. Limited by the learning ability and optimization difficulties of neural network, the accuracy of this solver will not improve significantly with mesh refinement. Nevertheless, it achieves comparable accuracy and efficiency to second-order FVM on fine meshes. Finally, we highlight the significant advantage of the solver in solving parametric problems, as it can efficiently obtain solutions in the continuous parameter space about the angle of attack.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2401.0720

    A complete state-space solution model for inviscid flow around airfoils based on physics-informed neural networks

    Full text link
    Engineering problems often involve solving partial differential equations (PDEs) over a range of similar problem setups with various state parameters. In traditional numerical methods, each problem is solved independently, resulting in many repetitive tasks and expensive computational costs. Data-driven modeling has alleviated these issues, enabling fast solution prediction. Nevertheless, it still requires expensive labeled data and faces limitations in modeling accuracy, generalization, and uncertainty. The recently developed methods for solving PDEs through neural network optimization, such as physics-informed neural networks (PINN), enable the simultaneous solution of a series of similar problems. However, these methods still face challenges in achieving stable training and obtaining correct results in many engineering problems. In prior research, we combined PINN with mesh transformation, using neural network to learn the solution of PDEs in the computational space instead of physical space. This approach proved successful in solving inviscid flow around airfoils. In this study, we expand the input dimensions of the model to include shape parameters and flow conditions, forming an input encompassing the complete state-space (i.e., all parameters determining the solution are included in the input). Our results show that the model has significant advantages in solving high-dimensional parametric problems, achieving continuous solutions in a broad state-space in only about 18.8 hours. This is a task that traditional numerical methods struggle to accomplish. Once established, the model can efficiently complete airfoil flow simulation and shape inverse design tasks in approximately 1 second. Furthermore, we introduce a pretraining-finetuning method, enabling the fine-tuning of the model for the task of interest and quickly achieving accuracy comparable to the finite volume method
