Recently, a class of methods that combine neural networks with traditional direct methods, referred to here as neural direct methods, has achieved success in the numerical solution of the high-dimensional HJB equation. Nevertheless, existing neural direct methods struggle with convergence when applied to the HJB equation with a long time horizon. A similar issue also arises when the effective solution domains of these methods are expanded. Through theoretical analysis, we identify one underlying cause of these issues as the exponential propagation of nonlinearity in the state dynamics over time, which significantly increases the difficulty of solving long-horizon problems. To address these challenges, we propose a space-time marching-based neural direct method (STM-NDM), which solves the HJB equation with gradually increasing difficulty levels. For each level, the HJB equation is recast as an optimal feedback control problem that accounts for midway disturbances, which is solved by a modified direct single shooting (DSS) method with neural network parameterization. Experimental results on several high-dimensional HJB equations corresponding to path planning problems validate the effectiveness of the STM-NDM.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50658,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation","volume":"152 ","pages":"Article 109196"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144861021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis explores the effects of cross-flow strength on the axial velocity profile, dispersion coefficient, and mean and transverse concentration distributions while accounting for porosity in the channel. Results reveal that cross-flow significantly reduces solute concentration near the top plate, causes aggregation near the bottom plate, and leads to a slower decrease at the channel centerline. These effects become more pronounced with increasing cross-flow intensity.

The strategy persistence mechanism allows individuals to maintain their strategies for a defined period, thereby counteracting the negative effects of antisocial punishment and reinforcing the persistence of cooperative strategies within the network.
