Researchers have developed a new theoretical framework for understanding neural operators' approximation capabilities within Sobolev spaces. This framework establishes an explicit relationship between model complexity and error, suggesting that a neural operator with \(\\mathcal{O}(\\varepsilon^{-d/s})\\) parameters can uniformly approximate a continuous nonlinear operator in the \(H^t\)-norm. Empirical validation on the Burgers' equation using Fourier Neural Operators demonstrated test errors as low as \(10^{-7}\) and relative errors around \(10^{-3}\), with performance scaling approximately as \(N^{-\\alpha}\\) where \(\alpha \approx 1.4\). The study also identified optimization instabilities in larger models during long-horizon training. AI
