Simple dynamics on graphs
Abstract
Does the interaction graph of a finite dynamical system can force this system to have a "complex" dynamics ? In other words, given a finite interval of integers , which are the signed digraphs such that every finite dynamical system with as interaction graph has a "complex" dynamics ? If we prove that no such signed digraph exists. More precisely, we prove that for every signed digraph there exists a system with as interaction graph that converges toward a unique fixed point in at most steps. The boolean case is more difficult, and we provide partial answers instead. We exhibit large classes of unsigned digraphs which admit boolean dynamical systems which converge toward a unique fixed point in polynomial, linear or constant time.
