In a recent paper [arXiv:1506.06649 [nlin.CG]], we presented an example of a 3-state cellular automaton which exhibits behaviour analogous to degenerate hyperbolicity often observed in finite-dimensional dynamical systems. We also…

We extend the usual definition of cellular automaton on a group in order to deal with a new kind of cellular automata, like cellular automata in the hyperbolic plane and we explore some properties of these cellular automata. This definition…

Any algorithm (in the sense of Gurevich's abstract-state-machine axiomatization of classical algorithms) operating over any arbitrary unordered domain can be simulated by a dynamic cellular automaton, that is, by a pattern-directed cellular…

We show that a behaviour analogous to degenerate hyperbolicity can occur in nearest-neighbour cellular automata (CA) with three states. We construct a 3-state rule by "lifting" elementary CA rule 140. Such "lifted" rule is equivalent to…
