contents Inspired by the Equation-Free paradigm, we propose an ``embed-learn-lift'' framework for constructing minimal-dimensional surrogate ROMs for the numerical analysis of high-fidelity Navier-Stokes simulations, even in the presence of symmetries that standard machine-learning surrogates often fail to preserve. The framework consists of four main stages. First, manifold learning (here both POD and Diffusion Maps) is used to uncover the intrinsic geometry and dimensionality of the latent space underlying the high-dimensional spatio-temporal Navier-Stokes dynamics across the parameter space. Second, we construct ROMs (here, via Gaussian Process regression (GPR)) of minimal dimension -- by learning the evolution equations directly on the identified latent space. Third, we exploit the toolkit of numerical bifurcation analysis to construct bifurcation diagrams and perform systematic stability analysis directly in the latent coordinates. This enables, for example, the efficient continuation of branches of limit cycles emerging from Andronov-Hopf and Neimark-Sacker bifurcations, together with the computation of limit-cycles periods and stability properties via Floquet multipliers. Such analysis is effectively intractable for the full Navier-Stokes equations. Finally, by solving the pre-image problem in manifold learning, we reconstruct the bifurcating steady and time-periodic states in the original high-dimensional physical space, thus closing the ``lift'' step of the pipeline. We show that DMs-based ROMs allow for a computationally efficient and accurate numerical bifurcation and stability analysis, thus outperforming the widely used POD-ROMs by providing a geometrically consistent parametrization and correctly identifying the intrinsic dimension even in the presence of secondary instabilities, highlighting the need for nonlinear manifold learning methods in CFD.
