• Abstract: We propose an extended Fourier neural operator (FNO) architecture for learning state and linear quadratic additive optimal control of systems governed by partial differential equations. Using the Ehrenpreis-Palamodov fundamental principle, we show that any state and optimal control of linear PDEs with constant coefficients can be represented as an integral in the complex domain. The integrand of this representation involves the same exponential term as in the inverse Fourier transform, where the latter is used to represent the convolution operator in FNO layer. Motivated by this observation, we modify the FNO layer by extending the frequency variable in the inverse Fourier transform from the real to complex domain to capture the integral representation from the fundamental principle. We illustrate the performance of FNO in learning state and optimal control for the nonlinear Burgers' equation, showing order of magnitude improvements in training errors and more accurate predictions of non-periodic boundary values over FNO.
