HotPOT predicts physical evolution across equation families using a shared history representation and family-specific learned predictors paired with fixed numerical updates. It trains these pairs together with next-state supervision. Across six settings and two activated-parameter scales, HotPOT beats MoE-POT in all 24 comparisons, with mean error reductions of 47.1% after pre-training, 54.3% after fine-tuning, and 50.7% overall. Tests cover regular grids and supported families, not arbitrary unseen equations.
