Verifiable Error Bounds for Physics-Informed Neural Network Solutions of Lyapunov and Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman Equations

arXiv:2603.19545v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many core problems in nonlinear systems analysis and control can be recast as solving partial differential equations (PDEs) such as Lyapunov and Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations. Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a promising mesh-free approach for approximating their solutions, but in most existing works there is no rigorous guarantee that a small PDE residual implies a small solution error. This paper develops verifiable error bounds for approximate solutions of Lyapunov and HJB equations, with particular

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing complexity of AI systems necessitates robust methods for verifying their outputs, especially in critical applications like control systems.

Why it’s important

This development addresses a fundamental limitation of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), enhancing their trustworthiness and expanding their applicability in high-stakes fields.

What changes

The ability to rigorously quantify error bounds for PINN solutions reduces the barrier to adoption for these powerful AI tools in areas requiring verifiable correctness.
