Neural PDE solvers commonly generate multi-step predictions through autoregressive rollout, recursively applying a learned evolution operator and feeding each prediction back as input for the next step. Approximation errors can therefore propagate through the rollout, causing predictions at a shared target time to depend on their temporal origins and rollout depths. For a well-posed deterministic PDE flow, however, states at different times along the same physical trajectory should, under exact evolution, reach the same target state. To this end, we propose Align Latent Rollout (ALR), a regularization approach that promotes consistency across rollout origins through the neural PDE solver's internal representations. A second-order Taylor analysis of latent discrepancy propagation motivates two objectives: zeroth-order latent state consistency, which aligns representations at a shared target time, and first-order latent dynamics consistency, which aligns local evolution responses to shared perturbations. ALR can be integrated into different neural PDE solvers by regularizing suitable internal representations, without modifying their backbone architectures. Experiments across multiple PDE benchmarks and neural-operator backbones show that ALR improves prediction accuracy while reducing shared-target discrepancies across rollout origins.
