Event Generation with Parallel Langevin Sampling and Learned Stein Diagnostics
Efficient event generation is a major computational challenge for precision collider phenomenology, especially for high-multiplicity final states where matrix-element evaluations are expensive and rejection-sampling efficiencies are low. We study an alternative approach based on many parallel underdamped Langevin chains, retaining one terminal state from each chain to obtain unweighted events while avoiding within-chain autocorrelation. A learned Stein discrepancy is used as a convergence diagnostic, providing a data-driven estimate of the relaxation time. We apply the method to tree-level $u\bar u\to Z+n g$ event generation and find that relaxation requires only a modest number of exact-target Langevin steps, with mild growth over the multiplicities studied. Finally, we show that simple neural-network surrogate initialization can substantially reduce the required number of exact matrix-element and gradient evaluations.

Fast and Efficient Parallel Sampling Using Higher Order Langevin Dynamics
We study parallel sampling from high-dimensional strongly log-concave distributions. Langevin-based samplers converge rapidly in continuous time, but their discretizations are typically sequential and often require polyn…
Picard Proximal Monte Carlo for Parallel Bayesian Imaging with Score-Based Generative Priors
Bayesian imaging inverse problems often require sampling from high-dimensional posterior distributions. While recent score-based and diffusion models provide expressive Bayesian priors, their sampling procedures remain i…

This paper introduces an alternative approach to sampling from autoregressive models. Autoregressive models are typically sampled sequentially, according to the transition dynamics defined by the model. Instead, we propo…

We show how to sample in parallel from a distribution $\pi$ over $\mathbb R^d$ that satisfies a log-Sobolev inequality and has a smooth log-density, by parallelizing the Langevin (resp. underdamped Langevin) algorithms. …
