We present an overview of recent developments in the numerical solution of Horndeski gravity theories, which are the class of all scalar-tensor theories of gravity that have second order equations of motion. We review several methods that have been used to establish well-posed initial value problems for these theories, and discuss well-posed formulations of the constraint equations. We also discuss global aspects of exact, strongly coupled solutions to some of Horndeski gravity theories: the formation of shocks, the loss of hyperbolicity, and the formation of naked curvature singularities. Finally we discuss numerical solutions to binary black hole and neutron star systems for several Horndeski theories.

A parity selection rule for regular black holes
Spherically symmetric gravity theories can carry generic matter through a regular center only if their defining functions have GR-like parity (α even, β odd in r), equivalent at the metric level to f(−r,−M)=f(r,M); Ha...

Scalar memory from compact binary coalescences
In Ricci-coupled scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, the change in scalar charge during binary black hole mergers generates a scalar memory contribution that modifies the total memory signal on observable timescales.

Signatures from metastable oppositely-charged black hole binaries in scalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity
In scalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity, inspiraling black holes with opposite scalar charges can undergo a sudden charge-flip, changing scalar radiation from dipolar to quadrupolar and inducing orbital eccentricity.

Towards long and accurate numerical relativity waveforms of binary black holes beyond general relativity
Spectral methods plus comoving fixing-the-equations drivers yield 40+ cycle equal-mass sGB binary waveforms with phase error ≲1 rad, distinguishable from GR and merging earlier.

Higher-derivative gravitational effective field theories are generically weakly hyperbolic
Any pure-metric higher-derivative gravity EFT with derivative-independent characteristics has a weakly hyperbolic physical spin-2 block that gauge fixing and constraint addition cannot remove.
