We revisit constructions for distribution and synthesis of Zielonka's asynchronous automata in restricted settings. We show first a simple, quadratic, distribution construction for asynchronous automata, where the process architecture is…
We introduce the class of Interrupt Timed Automata (ITA), a subclass of hybrid automata well suited to the description of timed multi-task systems with interruptions in a single processor environment. While the reachability problem is…
The main result of this paper is that the isomorphism for omega-automatic trees of finite height is at least has hard as second-order arithmetic and therefore not analytical. This strengthens a recent result by Hjorth, Khoussainov,…
We provide an easily checkable algebraic characterization of positive expansivity for Additive Cellular Automata over a finite abelian group. First of all, an easily checkable characterization of positive expansivity is provided for the non…
We define a new transfinite time model of computation, infinite time cellular automata. The model is shown to be as powerful than infinite time Turing machines, both on finite and infinite inputs; thus inheriting many of its properties. We…
We show that a cellular automaton on a mixing subshift of finite type is a Von Neumann regular element in the semigroup of cellular automata if and only if it is split epic onto its image in the category of sofic shifts and block maps. It…
Topological behavior, such as chaos, irreducibility, and mixing of a one-sided shift of finite type, is well elucidated. Meanwhile, the investigation of multidimensional shifts, for instance, textile systems is difficult and only a few…
In this paper, we investigate the halting problem for deterministic cellula automata in the pentagrid. We prove that the problem is decidable when the cellular automaton starts its computation from a finite configuration and when it has at…
Let $G$ be a group. Let $X$ be an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$. Denote by $A=X(K)$ the set of rational points of $X$. We study algebraic group cellular automata $\tau \colon A^G \to A^G$ whose local defining map is…
A finite automaton is called bideterministic if it is both deterministic and codeterministic -- that is, if it is deterministic and its transpose is deterministic as well. The study of such automata in a weighted setting is initiated. All…
We say that a Cellular Automata (CA) is coalescing when its execution on two distinct (random) initial configurations in the same asynchronous mode (the same cells are updated in each configuration at each time step) makes both…
A transition from asymmetric to symmetric patterns in time-dependent extended systems is described. It is found that one dimensional cellular automata, started from fully random initial conditions, can be forced to evolve into complex…
Non-uniform cellular automata (NUCA) are an extension of cellular automata with multiple local rules in different cells. We show that if the distribution of local rules is uniformly recurrent, or recurrent in the one-dimensional case, the…
Many sequences of $p$-adic integers project modulo $p^\alpha$ to $p$-automatic sequences for every $\alpha \geq 0$. Examples include algebraic sequences of integers, which satisfy this property for every prime $p$, and some cocycle…
We study discrete dynamical systems through the topological concepts of limit set, which consists of all points that can be reached arbitrarily late, and asymptotic set, which consists of all adhering values of orbits. In particular, we…
Let $a$ be a real euclidean vector space of finite dimension and $\Sigma$ a root system in $a$ with a basis $\Delta$. Let $\Theta \subset \Delta$ and $M = M_{\Theta}$ be a standard Levi of a reductive group $G$ such that $a_{\Theta}$ $= a_M…
Certain fermionic quantum field theories are equivalent to probabilistic cellular automata, with fermionic occupation numbers associated to bits. We construct an automaton that represents a discrete model of spinor gravity in four…
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…
Let $G$ be a group and $A$ a set. A cellular automaton (CA) $\tau$ over $A^G$ is von Neumann regular (vN-regular) if there exists a CA $\sigma$ over $A^G$ such that $\tau \sigma\tau = \tau$, and in such case, $\sigma$ is called a…
We study alternating automata with qualitative semantics over infinite binary trees: alternation means that two opposing players construct a decoration of the input tree called a run, and the qualitative semantics says that a run of the…
