## Abstract (arXiv)

We present a magnetic extension of the Hierarchically Interacting Particle Neural Network (HIP-NN) that enables large-scale simulations of electron-mediated spin dynamics in disordered itinerant magnets. The resulting magnetic HIP-NN (mHIP-NN) incorporates rotationally invariant spin correlations directly into hierarchical message-passing layers, enabling the network to learn emergent magnetic energy landscapes and effective local fields from coupled geometric-spin environments while preserving spin-rotation symmetry. As a benchmark application, we consider structurally disordered itinerant s-d exchange models in which the effective magnetic forces arise dynamically from the instantaneous electronic structure and are computationally prohibitive to evaluate using conventional exact-diagonalization-based approaches. We show that mHIP-NN accurately reproduces the local torques governing Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert dynamics and faithfully captures the nonequilibrium evolution of spatial spin correlations following thermal quenches. Our results establish symmetry-aware hierarchical message-passing networks as an efficient and scalable framework for large-scale simulations of frustrated itinerant spin systems and nonequilibrium magnetic dynamics. More broadly, because the learned energy functional remains fully differentiable with respect to both atomic coordinates and spin variables, the framework also provides a natural foundation for spin-dependent interatomic potentials and coupled atom-spin dynamics.
