We study one-dimensional cellular automata whose rules are chosen at random from among $r$-neighbor rules with a large number $n$ of states. Our main focus is the asymptotic behavior, as $n \to \infty$, of the longest temporal period…

We provide algebraic criteria for the unitarity of linear quantum cellular automata, i.e. one dimensional quantum cellular automata. We derive these both by direct combinatorial arguments, and by adding constraints into the model which do…

Cellular automata are discrete dynamical systems and a model of computation. The limit set of a cellular automaton consists of the configurations having an infinite sequence of preimages. It is well known that these always contain a…

One-dimensional cellular automata are discrete dynamical systems that operate on an infinite lattice of sites and are characterized by the locality and uniformity of their update rule. Permutations of the state set and isometric…

We consider the problem of embedding odometers in one-dimensional cellular automata. We show that (1) every odometer can be be embedded in a gliders with reflecting walls cellular automaton, which one depending on the odometer, and (2) an…

Cellular Automata (CA) are discrete dynamical systems and an abstract model of parallel computation. The limit set of a cellular automaton is its maximal topological attractor. A well know result, due to Kari, says that all nontrivial…

In this paper, we show a construction of a weakly universal cellular automaton in the 3D hyperbolic space with two states. The cellular automaton is rotation invariant and, moreover, based on a new implementation of a railway circuit in the…

We study cellular automata with respect to a new communication complexity problem: each of two players know half of some finite word, and must be able to tell whether the state of the central cell will follow a given evolution, by…

We consider a left permutive cellular automaton Phi, with no memory and positive anticipation, defined on the space of all doubly infinite sequences with entries from a finite alphabet. For each such automaton that is not one-to-one, there…

We investigate the mean dimension of a cellular automaton (CA for short) with a compact non-discrete space of states. A formula for the mean dimension is established for (near) strongly permutative, permutative algebraic and unit…

Let A^Z be the Cantor space of bi-infinite sequences in a finite alphabet A, and let sigma be the shift map on A^Z. A `cellular automaton' is a continuous, sigma-commuting self-map Phi of A^Z, and a `Phi-invariant subshift' is a closed,…

Failure to find homogeneous scalar unitary cellular automata (CA) in one dimension led to consideration of only ``approximately unitary'' CA---which motivated our recent proof of a No-go Lemma in one dimension. In this note we extend the…
