We propose Hermite-NGP, a gradient-augmented multi-resolution hash encoding designed to enable fast and accurate computation of spatial derivatives for neural PDE solvers. Unlike existing NGP-based approaches that rely on automatic differentiation or finite differences and suffer from instability or high cost, Hermite-NGP explicitly stores function values and mixed partial derivatives at hash grid vertices, allowing fully analytic evaluation of gradients, Jacobians, and Hessians via Hermite interpolation. This design preserves the efficiency and spatial adaptivity of NGP while supporting analytic differential operators up to second order. We further introduce a multi-resolution curriculum training strategy analogous to multigrid V-cycles to enable coarse-to-fine optimization. Across a range of 2D and 3D PDE benchmarks, Hermite-NGP achieves up to approximately 20 times lower error than prior neural PDE methods, and reduces wall-clock convergence time by 2 to 10 times compared to other solvers, with per-epoch training times as low as 3.5 ms for models with up to 17M parameters.

We present Orbit-Space Geometric Probability Paths (OGPP), a particle-native flow-matching framework for generative modeling of particle systems. OGPP is motivated by two insights: (i) particles are defined up to permutation symmetries, so anonymous indexing inflates per-index target variance and yields curved, hard-to-learn flows; and (ii) particles live in physical space, so the flow terminal velocity has physical meaning and can encode geometric attributes, e.g., surface normals. OGPP instantiates three key components: (1) orbit-space canonicalization of the probability-path terminal endpoint, (2) particle index embeddings for role specialization, and (3) geometric probability paths with arc-length-aware terminal velocities that generate normals as a byproduct of the flow. We evaluate OGPP on minimal-surface benchmarks, where it reduces metric error by up to two orders of magnitude in a single inference step; on ShapeNet, where it matches the state of the art with 5x fewer steps and reaches airplane EMD comparable to DiT-3D with 26x fewer parameters and 5x fewer steps; and on single-shape encoding, where it produces normals and reconstructions competitive with 6D generators while operating entirely in 3D.
