In this paper, we study a class of cellular automata (CA) called stable cellular automata (SCA) that preserve stability by reflection, modulo-recurrent, and richness. After applying these automata to Sturmian words, we determine some of…

We consider a class of noisy, one-dimensional quantum cellular automata that allow one to shift from unitary dynamics to completely positive maps, and investigate the notion of reversibility in such a setting. To this aim, we associate an…

Cellular automata are a discrete dynamical system which models massively parallel computation. Much attention is devoted to computations with small time complexity for which the parallelism may provide further possibilities. In this paper,…

Using a group-theoretic approach, a method for determining the equivalence classes (also called orbits) of the set of rules of one-dimensional cellular automata induced by the symmetry operations of reflection and permutation and their…

A class of additive cellular automata (ACA) on a finite group is defined by an index-group $\m g$ and a finite field $\m F_p$ for a prime modulus $p$ \cite{Bul_arch_1}. This paper deals mainly with ACA on infinite commutative groups and…

Quantum cellular automata are alternative quantum-computing paradigms to quantum Turing machines and quantum circuits. Their working mechanisms are inherently automated, therefore measurement free, and they act in a translation invariant…

A probabilistic cellular automaton for cargo transport is presented that generalizes the totally asymmetric exclusion process with a defect from continuous time to parallel dynamics. It appears as an underlying principle in cellular…

Given a finite set $A$ and a group homomorphism $\phi : H \to G$, a $\phi$-cellular automaton is a function $\mathcal{T} : A^G \to A^H$ that is continuous with respect to the prodiscrete topologies and $\phi$-equivariant in the sense that…

In three spatial dimensions, communication channels are free to pass over or under each other so as to cross without intersecting; in two dimensions, assuming channels of strictly positive thickness, this is not the case. It is natural,…

We present a preliminary study of a new class of two-input cellular automata called eventually number-conserving cellular automata characterized by the property of evolving after a finite number of time steps to states whose number of…

Complexity has been a recurrent research topic in cellular automata because they represent systems where complex behaviors emerge from simple local interactions. A significant amount of previous research has been conducted proposing…

The generic limit set of a cellular automaton is a topologically dened set of congurations that intends to capture the asymptotic behaviours while avoiding atypical ones. It was dened by Milnor then studied by Djenaoui and Guillon rst, and…

This tutorial is about cellular automata that exhibit 'cold dynamics'. By this we mean zero entropy, stabilization of all orbits, trivial asymptotic dynamics, etc. These are purely transient irreversible dynamics, but they capture many…
