PDEAgent-Bench - Heat: leaderboard

PDEAgent-Bench (Hang et al., 2026) gives a model a structured PDE specification and asks for a complete finite-element solver in one attempt, with no execution feedback: the 50 time-dependent heat equations of the primary DOLFINx 0.10 track. A case passes only if the solver runs, returns a valid solution within 10 times the calibration baseline's relative L2 error and finishes within 3 times its runtime; the score is the pass rate in percent, higher is better.

Metric: Case pass rate (%; 50 DOLFINx cases, single-shot, temperature 0). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 5 models tracked.
