While this has led to solving many complex phenomena, there are some limitations. Conventional approaches such as Finite Element Methods (FEMs) and Finite Differential Methods (FDMs) require considerable time and are computationally expensive. In contrast, data driven machine learning-based methods such as neural networks provide a faster, fairly accurate alternative, and have certain advantages such as discretization invariance and resolution invariance. This article aims to provide a comprehensive insight into how data-driven approaches can complement conventional techniques to solve engineering and physics problems, while also noting some of the major pitfalls of machine learning-based approaches. Furthermore, we highlight, a novel and fast machine learning-based approach ( ∼ 1000x) to learning the solution operator of a PDE operator learning. We will note how these new computational approaches can bring immense advantages in tackling many problems in fundamental and applied physics.  \nKeywords: Machine learning, Neural networks, Neural operators, Fourier neural operator, Geo-FNO, Graph neural operator, Physics informed neural operator, Finite element method, Finite volume method, Finite difference method, DeepONet, Spectral neural operator, Adaptive Fourier neural operator, Burgers equation, Darcy Flow equation, Navier Stokes equation, Kolmogorov Flow  \n1. Introduction  \nPartial differential equations (PDEs) are an integral tool in mathematically modeling the physical world. They allow one to describe how a quantity changes with respect to multiple variables and have allowed physicists to model various phenomena in fluid flow, electrodynamics, and quantum mechanics. An example family of generic PDEs can be represented as shown in equation 1 ,  \n(Lau)(x) = f(x), x ∈ D, (1)  \nto solving PDEs are numerical methods such as finite difference methods (FDMs) Godunov & Bohachevsky (1959), finite element methods (FEMs) Zienkiewicz et al.(2005), and finite volume methods (FVMs) Eymardet al. (2000) as they are able to approximate solutions to PDEs with high amounts of accuracy. However, they are computationally expensive.  \nFinite difference methods solve PDEs by converting them into linear algebraic equations called finite difference equations. These equations are obtained by discretizing  \narXiv :2301 . 13331v2 [ cs .AI] 18 Sep 2023  \nu (x) = 0, x ∈ δD  \nfor some a ∈ A, f ∈ L, where A, L are Banach spaces, Dis the domain of the PDE and u : D → R, u ∈ U is the solution function.
