Abstract (arXiv)

Dynamic graphs are ubiquitous in real-world systems, and building generalizable dynamic Graph Foundation Models has become a frontier in graph learning. However, dynamic graphs from different domains pose fundamental challenges to unified modeling, as their semantic and temporal patterns are inherently inconsistent, making the multi-domain pre-training difficult. Consequently, the widely used "pretrain-then-finetune" paradigm often suffers from severe negative knowledge transfer. To the best of our knowledge, there exists no multi-domain dynamic GFM. In this work, we propose DyGFM, a Dynamic Graph Foundation Model over multiple domains based on decoupled and divergence-conditioned prompting. To disentangle transferable semantics from the domain-specific dynamics, we introduce a dual-branch pre-training strategy with semantic-temporal decoupling. To alleviate negative transfer during domain adaptation, we further develop a cross-domain routing mechanism with divergence-aware expert selection. To enable efficient downstream fine-tuning, we design a divergence-conditioned prompt generator that injects lightweight, learnable graph prompts tailored to semantic and temporal traits. Extensive experiments on continuous dynamic graph benchmarks demonstrate that DyGFM consistently outperforms 12 state-of-the-art baselines on both node classification and link prediction tasks, achieving superior effectiveness and efficiency.
