We revisit the problem of finding the conditions under which synchronous probabilistic cellular automata indexed by the line $\mathbb{Z}$, or the periodic line $\cyl{n}$, depending on 2 neighbours, admit as invariant distribution the law of…

A `right-sided, nearest neighbour cellular automaton' (RNNCA) is a continuous transformation F:A^Z-->A^Z determined by a local rule f:A^{0,1}-->A so that, for any a in A^Z and any z in Z, F(a)_z = f(a_{z},a_{z+1}) . We say that F is…

Higher-order cellular automata (HOCA) are a variant of cellular automata (CA) used in many applications (ranging, for instance, from the design of secret sharing schemes to data compression and image processing), and in which the global…

This paper investigates reversibility properties of 1-dimensional 3-neighborhood d-state finite cellular automata (CAs) of length n under periodic boundary condition. A tool named reachability tree has been developed from de Bruijn graph…

In this paper we study $\nu$-CA on one-dimensional lattice defined over a finite set of local rules. The main goal is to determine how the local rules can be mixed to ensure the produced $\nu$-CA has some properties. In a first part, we…

We give a one-dimensional quantum cellular automaton (QCA) capable of simulating all others. By this we mean that the initial configuration and the local transition rule of any one-dimensional QCA can be encoded within the initial…

In this paper we consider cellular automata $(\mathfrak{G},\Phi)$ with algebraic local rules and such that $\mathfrak{G}$ is a topological Markov chain which has a structure compatible to this local rule. We characterize such cellular…

In this paper, we study reversibility of one-dimensional(1D) linear cellular automata(LCA) under null boundary condition, whose core problems have been divided into two main parts: calculating the period of reversibility and verifying the…

We consider discrete and integer-valued cellular automata (CA). A particular class of which comprises "Hamiltonian CA" with equations of motion that bear similarities to Hamilton's equations, while they present discrete updating rules. The…

Cellular automata are topological dynamical systems. We consider the problem of deciding whether two cellular automata are conjugate or not. We also consider deciding strong conjugacy, that is, conjugacy by a map that commutes with the…

There exists algorithms to detect reversibility of cellular automaton (CA) for both finite and infinite lattices taking quadratic time. But, can we identify a $d$-state CA rule in constant time that is always reversible for every lattice…

We study groups of reversible cellular automata, or CA groups, on groups. More generally, we consider automorphism groups of subshifts of finite type on groups. It is known that word problems of CA groups on virtually nilpotent groups are…

Causal Graph Dynamics extend Cellular Automata to arbitrary, bounded-degree, time-varying graphs. The whole graph evolves in discrete time steps, and this global evolution is required to have a number of physics-like symmetries:…
