We study a \emph{Plurality-Consensus} process in which each of $n$ anonymous agents of a communication network initially supports an opinion (a color chosen from a finite set $[k]$). Then, in every (synchronous) round, each agent can revise…

In this article we investigate the computational complexity of predicting two dimensional freezing majority cellular automata with states $\{-1,+1\}$, where the local interactions are based on an L-shaped neighborhood structure. In these…

By the use of computer simulations we investigate, in the cellular automaton of two-dimensional traffic flow, the anisotropic effect of the probabilities of the change of the move directions of cars, from up to right ($p_{ur}$) and from…

We consider transformations between attractor basins of binary cylindrical cellular automata resulting from mutations. A t-point mutation of a state consists in toggling t sites in that state. Results of such mutations are described by a…

Probabilistic Cellular Automata (PCA) are simple models used to study dynamical phase transitions. There exist mean field approximations to PCA that can be shown to exhibit a phase transition. We introduce a model interpolating between a…

We introduce a simple model of opinion dynamics in which binary-state agents evolve due to the influence of agents in a local neighborhood. In a single update step, a fixed-size group is defined and all agents in the group adopt the state…

We systematically study the boundaries of one-dimensional, 2-color cellular automata depending on 4 cells, begun from simple initial conditions. We determine the exact growth rates of the boundaries that appear to be reducible. Morphic…

A one-dimensional cellular automaton with a probabilistic evolution rule can generate stochastic surface growth in $(1 + 1)$ dimensions. Two such discrete models of surface growth are constructed from a probabilistic cellular automaton…

Bootstrap percolation is a type of cellular automaton which has been used to model various physical phenomena, such as ferromagnetism. For each natural number $r$, the $r$-neighbour bootstrap process is an update rule for vertices of a…

Using Pade approximations and Monte Carlo simulations, we study the phase diagram of the Two-Neighbor Stochastic Cellular Automata, which have two parameters $p_{1}$ and $p_{2}$ and include the mixed site-bond directed percolation (DP) as a…

Majority bootstrap percolation is a model of infection spreading in networks. Starting with a set of initially infected vertices, new vertices become infected once half of their neighbours are infected. Balogh, Bollob\'{a}s and Morris…

We consider a recent model of random walk that recursively grows the network on which it evolves, namely the Tree Builder Random Walk (TBRW). We introduce a bias $\rho \in (0,\infty)$ towards the root, and exhibit a phase transition for…
