We add small random perturbations to a cellular automaton and consider the one-parameter family $(F_\epsilon)_{\epsilon>0}$ parameterized by $\epsilon$ where $\epsilon>0$ is the level of noise. The objective of the article is to study the…
Given a finite set of local constraints, we seek a cellular automaton (i.e., a local and uniform algorithm) that self-stabilises on the configurations that satisfy these constraints. More precisely, starting from a finite perturbation of a…
We investigate cellular automata where some global quantity varies periodically or quasiperiodically with time. We find that these systems are highly predictable, and can be rather well described by a set of mean-field variables. We…
We study $2$-neighbor one-dimensional cellular automata with a large number $n$ of states and randomly selected rules. We focus on the rules with weakly robust periodic solutions (WRPS). WRPS are global configurations that exhibit spatial…
Two simple Cellular Automata, which mimic the Collatz-Ulam iterated map (3x+1 map), are introduced. These Cellular Automata allow to test efficiently the Collatz conjecture for very large numbers.
We develop a rigorous topological theory of anomalies on the lattice, which are obstructions to gauging global symmetries and the existence of trivial symmetric states. We also construct $\Omega$-spectra of a class of invertible states and…
We construct a cellular automaton (CA) model that describes the movement of a particle in a disordered system. The mathematical properties of the CA model were examined by varying the configuration of grid and determining the number of…
We apply a recently proposed dynamically driven renormalization group scheme to probabilistic cellular automata having one absorbing state. We have found just one unstable fixed point with one relevant direction. In the limit of small…
The dynamical behavior of non-uniform cellular automata is compared with the one of classical cellular automata. Several differences and similarities are pointed out by a series of examples. Decidability of basic properties like…
A commonly used model for fault-tolerant computation is that of cellular automata. The essential difficulty of fault-tolerant computation is present in the special case of simply remembering a bit in the presence of faults, and that is the…
While the reversibility of multidimensional cellular automata is undecidable and there exists a criterion for determining if a multidimensional linear cellular automaton is reversible, there are only a few results about the reversibility…
We propose a simple cellular automaton model of a self-healing system and investigate its properties. In the model, the substrate is a two-dimensional checkerboard configuration which can be damaged by changing values of a finite number of…
In this paper we consider a random partition of the plane into cells, the partition being based on the nodes and links of a {\it random planar geometric graph}. The resulting structure generalises the \emph{random \tes}\ hitherto studied in…
We define quantum cellular automata as infinite quantum lattice systems with discrete time dynamics, such that the time step commutes with lattice translations and has strictly finite propagation speed. In contrast to earlier definitions…
Bijections between sets may be seen as discrete (or crisp) unitary transformations used in quantum computations. So discrete quantum cellular automata are cellular automata with reversible transition functions. This note studies on 1d…
Number-conserving (or {\em conservative}) cellular automata have been used in several contexts, in particular traffic models, where it is natural to think about them as systems of interacting particles. In this article we consider several…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to a mistake in the proof and a corresponding incorrect result. A correct rigorous analysis of a similar model is presented in ``Spiral Model: a cellular automaton with a discontinuous glass…
We study reversible quantum cellular automata with the restriction that these are also Clifford operations. This means that tensor products of Pauli operators (or discrete Weyl operators) are mapped to tensor products of Pauli operators.…
For soliton cellular automata, we give a uniform description and proofs of the solitons, the scattering rule of two solitons, and the phase shift using rigged configurations in a number of special cases. In particular, we prove these…
In this paper, we mainly study linear one-dimensional and two-dimensional elementary cellular automata that generate symmetrical spatio-temporal patterns. For spatio-temporal patterns of cellular automata from the single site seed, we…
