Seismic wavefield simulation is fundamental to seismology, but conventional finite-difference (FD) methods remain limited by numerical dispersion and stability constraints, which often require dense spatial grids and small time steps and thereby severely limit the effectiveness of iterative inversion workflows. We introduce a conditional diffusion-based wavefield propagator that advances seismic wavefields recursively from one time step to the next. Instead of learning an unconditional data distribution of wavefield evolution, the model is conditioned by a short history of recent wavefield time steps (snapshots), the velocity model, and the wavefield time step index, allowing it to represent the conditional transition between adjacent physical states. By training the network to directly predict the clean next wavefield snapshot, this strong physical conditioning makes it possible to replace the iterative reverse diffusion process with a single network evaluation for each predicted snapshot. To improve stability over long recursive rollouts, we further introduce a causal time-weighted loss, in which adaptive weights, accumulated as exponential moving averages of per-snapshot training errors, emphasize training directions that are consistent with the forward propagation sequence and reduce the amplification of one-step prediction errors. Because the learned propagator is tied to the temporal spacing of the training snapshots rather than to the FD stability limit, it can advance the wavefield using a physical time step ten times larger than that required by the underlying solver. Experiments on the Overthrust, SEG/EAGE, and Marmousi models show that the proposed method accurately reproduces wavefield snapshots and shot gathers and achieves an end-to-end speedup of 2.17 x over a GPU-accelerated tenth-order staggered-grid FD implementation under matched hardware conditions.
