We review the main software and computing challenges for the Monte Carlo physics event generators used by the LHC experiments, in view of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) physics programme. This paper has been prepared by the HEP Software Foundation (HSF) Physics Event Generator Working Group as an input to the LHCC review of HL-LHC computing, which has started in May 2020.

  1. Scattering Amplitudes as Programs: Self-Evolving Search for Theory and Event Generation

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Self-evolving program search over scattering amplitudes discovers known and hybrid evaluation structures, cutting counted arithmetic ~48x and reaching within ~14x of optimized MadGraph at n=6 while beating the tested ...

  2. Accelerating Berends-Giele recursion for gluons in arbitrary dimensions over finite fields

    hep-ph 2025-02 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    A publicly available GPU implementation of Berends-Giele recursion computes pure gluon amplitudes in arbitrary spacetime dimensions over finite fields.

  3. Schr\"{o}dinger Generator for High-Dimensional Integration and Sampling on Quantum Many-Body States

    nucl-th 2026-08 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    A two-stage sampler (adaptive marginal map plus normalizing flow, then resampling) is proposed and shown on model nuclear densities up to D=624, though a core Jacobian equation appears sign-inconsistent.

  4. Data-parallel leading-order event generation in MadGraph5_aMC@NLO

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    CUDACPP gives MadGraph data-parallel helicity amplitudes, delivering linear SIMD CPU speed-ups and up to order-of-magnitude GPU speed-ups for high-multiplicity QCD event generation.

  5. ARCANE Reweighting: A Monte Carlo Technique to Tackle the Negative Weights Problem in Collider Event Generation

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    ARCANE reweighting adds a carefully designed, zero-average correction to event weights so that positive and negative pathways to the same event cancel, preserving all physical distributions.
