We introduce an efficient cellular automaton for the coagulation-fission process with diffusion 2A->3A, 2A->A in arbitrary dimensions. As the well-known Domany-Kinzel model, it is defined on a tilted hypercubic lattice and evolves by…
Classical $(1+1)D$ cellular automata, as for instance Domany-Kinzel cellular automata, are paradigmatic systems for the study of non-equilibrium phenomena. Such systems evolve in discrete time-steps, and are thus free of time-discretisation…

Quantum cellular automata consist in arrays of identical finite-dimensional quantum systems, evolving in discrete-time steps by iterating a unitary operator G. Moreover the global evolution G is required to be causal (it propagates…
