This paper presents a novel approach for accelerating n-body simulations by integrating a physics-informed graph neural networks (GNN) with traditional numerical methods.
The method uses a leapfrog-based simulation engine to generate datasets from diverse astrophysical scenarios, which are transformed into graph representations.
A custom-designed GNN is trained to predict particle accelerations with high precision and achieves low prediction errors.
Experiments demonstrate that the proposed model maintains robust long-term stability and offers a modest speedup of approximately 17% over conventional simulation techniques.
