Abstract
Monotone finite difference methods provide stable convergent discretizations of a class of degenerate elliptic and parabolic Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). These methods are best suited to regular rectangular grids, which leads to low accuracy near curved boundaries or singularities of solutions. In this article we combine monotone finite difference methods with an adaptive grid refinement technique to produce a PDE discretization and solver which is applied to a broad class of equations, in curved or unbounded domains which include free boundaries. The grid refinement is flexible and adaptive. The discretization is combined with a fast solution method, which incorporates asynchronous time stepping adapted to the spatial scale. The framework is validated on linear problems in curved and unbounded domains. Key applications include the obstacle problem and the one-phase Stefan free boundary problem.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
