abstract
In this paper, we study the statistical limits of deep learning techniques for solving elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) from random samples using the Deep Ritz Method (DRM) and Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). To simplify the problem, we focus on a prototype elliptic PDE: the Schr\"odinger equation on a hypercube with zero Dirichlet boundary condition, which has wide application in the quantum-mechanical systems. We establish upper and lower bounds for both methods, which improves upon concurrently developed upper bounds for this problem via a fast rate generalization bound. We discover that the current Deep Ritz Methods is sub-optimal and propose a modified version of it. We also prove that PINN and the modified version of DRM can achieve minimax optimal bounds over Sobolev spaces. Empirically, following recent work which has shown that the deep model accuracy will improve with growing training sets according to a power law, we supply computational experiments to show a similar behavior of dimension dependent power law for deep PDE solvers.

For single- and two-index neural hypotheses in the deep Ritz method for the Schrödinger equation, gradient descent converges in O(log(1/ε)) iterations and the Ritz minimizer aligns with the source feature; a second feature emerges as regularization varies.
Proves sharp operator-norm concentration and expectation bounds for sample cross-covariances of sub-Gaussian and Gaussian vectors, governed by effective ranks of the marginal covariances.
