arXiv:2610.27500v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop and compare enhanced neural-network solvers for one-dimensional ground-state profiles, which are solutions of $$ Q^{\prime\prime}=bQ-\gamma Q^{p},\quad Q>0,\quad p>1, \quad b, \gamma >0, $$ the stationary profile equation for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger, generalized Korteweg-de Vries, and nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations. Its explicit sech-type solutions serve as exact reference for error computation and benchmark hyperparameter selection. We improve on the standard Adam-trained physics-informed neural network (PINN) baseline by introducing higher-order optimization via Gauss-Newton/Levenberg-Marquardt and L-BFGS refinements, as well as Fourier-feature PINNs, and constrained Deep Ritz (DR) formulations. In DR approaches we introduce two new neural-network formulations, which implement two classical variational characterizations: a Nehari-constrained Deep Ritz method, in which the height is learned by projecting onto the Nehari/Pokhozhaev manifold, and a Weinstein Deep Ritz method, in which a normalized profile minimizes the Weinstein quotient. The Deep Ritz formulations perform best overall, in particular, the Weinstein variant gives the best error-runtime balance. The neural-network based solvers remain less accurate and efficient than classical Petviashvili iteration in 1D, however, the current study provides a proof of concept: the mesh-free formulation, non-reliance on exact profiles or the related features make them promising in higher dimensions and for more complicated nonlinearities and dispersive operators.
