Description

Amplitude level evolution has become a new theoretical paradigm to analyze parton shower algorithms which are at the heart of multi-purpose event generator simulations used for particle collider experiments. It can also be implemented as a numerical algorithm in its own right to perform resummation of non-global observables beyond the leading colour approximation, leading to a new kind of parton cascade. In this talk I will present the computational details and challenges behind the CVolver method and library, and its relation to new Monte Carlo sampling algorithms and a possible future structure of event generators.
