The phase diagram of the coupled sine circle map lattice exhibits a variety of interesting phenomena including spreading regions with spatiotemporal intermittency, non-spreading regions with spatial intermittency, and coherent structures…
Unitarity of the global evolution is an extremely stringent condition on finite state models in discrete spacetime. Quantum cellular automata, in particular, are tightly constrained. In previous work we proved a simple No-go Theorem which…
We consider the dynamics of lattice random walks with resetting. The walker moving randomly on a lattice of arbitrary dimensions resets at every time step to a given site with a constant probability $r$. We construct a discrete renewal…
Invertible cellular automata are useful as models of physical systems with microscopically revesible dyanmics. There are several well-understood ways to construct them: partitioning rules, second-order rules, and alternating-grid rules. We…
We propose a discrete spacetime formulation of quantum electrodynamics in one-dimension (a.k.a the Schwinger model) in terms of quantum cellular automata, i.e. translationally invariant circuits of local quantum gates. These have exact…
To respect physics and nature, cellular automata (CA) models of self-organisation, emergence, computation and logical universality should be isotropic, having equivalent dynamics in all directions. We present a novel paradigm, the iso-rule,…
We discuss a general procedure to construct an integrable real-time trotterization of interacting lattice models. As an illustrative example we consider a spin-$1/2$ chain, with continuous time dynamics described by the isotropic ($XXX$)…

A general mathematical method is presented for the systematic construction of coupled map lattices (CMLs) out of deterministic cellular automata (CAs). The entire CA rule space is addressed by means of a universal map for CAs that we have…
This paper is concerned with the death-birth updating process. This model is an example of a spatial game in which players located on the~$d$-dimensional integer lattice are characterized by one of two possible strategies and update their…
A master equation approach is applied to a reversible and conservative cellular automata model (Q2R). The Q2R model is a dynamical variation of the Ising model for ferromagnetism that possesses quite a rich and complex dynamics. The…
Probabilistic cellular automata with deterministic updating are quantum systems. We employ the quantum formalism for an investigation of random probabilistic cellular automata, which start with a probability distribution over initial…
Landslide inventories show that the statistical distribution of the area of recorded events is well described by a power law over a range of decades. To understand these distributions, we consider a cellular automaton to model a time and…
The emergent dynamics in spacetime diagrams of cellular automata (CAs) is often organised by means of a number of behavioural classes. Whilst classification of elementary CAs is feasible and well-studied, non-elementary CAs are generally…
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…
A cellular automaton is a parallel synchronous computing model, which consists in a juxtaposition of finite automata whose state evolves according to that of their neighbors. It induces a dynamical system on the set of configurations, i.e.…
It is well-known that the spacetime diagrams of some cellular automata have a fractal structure: for instance Pascal's triangle modulo 2 generates a Sierpinski triangle. It has been shown that such patterns can occur when the alphabet is…
In this paper I present a first attempt for a possible description of fluids dynamics by mean of a cellular automata technique. With the use of simple and elementary rules, based on random behaviour either, the model permits to obtain the…
The control of chaotic systems implies inducing an unpredictable system to follow a desired trajectory using the smallest "force". In low-dimensional continuous systems, one method is that of reconstructing the tangent space, so that the…
