We construct a three-dimensional quantum cellular automaton (QCA), an automorphism of the local operator algebra on a lattice of qubits, which disentangles the ground state of the Walker-Wang three fermion model. We show that if this QCA…

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…

Linear quantum cellular automata were introduced recently as one of the models of quantum computing. A basic postulate of quantum mechanics imposes a strong constraint on any quantum machine: it has to be unitary, that is its time evolution…

Very much as its classical counterpart, quantum cellular automata are expected to be a great tool for simulating complex quantum systems. Here we introduce a partitioned model of quantum cellular automata and show how it can simulate, with…

In this work, we develop a method to use Quantum- Dot Cellular Automata (QCA) for universal quantum computing. This method is based conceptually on refocusing in NMR systems. We show how an array of QCA cells can be used for isolated single…

Quantum cellular automata (QCA) are discrete models of space and time homogeneous quantum field theories (QFTs) and regarded as natural candidates for quantum simulation. Description of a QCA over the separable Hilbert space of finite,…

A minimalistic model for chimera states is presented. The model is a cellular automaton (CA) which depends on only one adjustable parameter, the range of the nonlocal coupling, and is built from elementary cellular automata and the majority…

We introduce an action principle for a class of integer valued cellular automata and obtain Hamiltonian equations of motion. Employing sampling theory, these discrete deterministic equations are invertibly mapped on continuum equations for…

Cornerstones of the Cellular Automaton Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics are its ontological states that evolve by permutations, in this way never creating would-be quantum mechanical superposition states. We review and illustrate this…

Coarse graining enables the investigation of molecular dynamics for larger systems and at longer timescales than is possible at atomic resolution. However, a coarse graining model must be formulated such that the conclusions we draw from it…

Cellular automata (CA) consist of an array of identical cells, each of which may take one of a finite number of possible states. The entire array evolves in discrete time steps by iterating a global evolution G. Further, this global…

There exists algorithms to detect reversibility of cellular automaton (CA) for both finite and infinite lattices taking quadratic time. But, can we identify a $d$-state CA rule in constant time that is always reversible for every lattice…

Take a cellular automaton, consider that each configuration is a basis vector in some vector space, and linearize the global evolution function. If lucky, the r esult could actually make sense physically, as a valid quantum evolution; but…

Cellular automata provide models of parallel computation based on cells, whose connectivity is given by an action of a monoid on the cells. At each step in the computation, every cell is decorated with a state that evolves in discrete steps…

According to 't Hooft, restoring Poincar\'e invariance in a holographic cellular automaton (CA) requires two distinct evolution laws that commute. We explore how this is realized in the AdS/CFT framework, assuming commutativity as a…
