In this paper, we construct a strongly universal cellular automaton on the line with 11 states and the standard neighbourhood. We embed this construction into several tilings of the hyperbolic plane and of the hyperbolic 3D space giving…

We investigate the density classification task (DCT) -- determining the majority bit in a one-dimensional binary lattice -- within a quantum cellular automaton (CA) framework. While there is no one-dimensional two-state, radius $r \geq 1$,…
Relation between global transition function and local transition function of a homogeneous one dimensional cellular automaton (CA) is investigated for some standard transition functions. It could be shown that left shift and right shift CA…

Number-conserving cellular automata are discrete dynamical systems that simulate interacting particles like e.g. grains of sand. In an earlier paper, I had already derived a uniform construction for all transition rules of one-dimensional…

We consider discrete and integer-valued cellular automata (CA). A particular class of which comprises "Hamiltonian CA" with equations of motion that bear similarities to Hamilton's equations, while they present discrete updating rules. The…
The notions of universality and completeness are central in the theories of computation and computational complexity. However, proving lower bounds and necessary conditions remains hard in most of the cases. In this article, we introduce…
Salem's singular function is strictly increasing, continuous, and has a derivative equal to zero almost everywhere in $[0,1]$; it is also known as de Rham's singular function or Lebesgue's singular function. The parameter of Salem's…
The bandwidth of timed automata characterizes the quantity of information produced/transmitted per time unit. We previously delimited 3 classes of TA according to the nature of their asymptotic bandwidth: meager, normal, and obese. In this…
Cellular Automata are discrete--time dynamical systems on a spatially extended discrete space which provide paradigmatic examples of nonlinear phenomena. Their stochastic generalizations, i.e., Probabilistic Cellular Automata, are discrete…
Universality in cellular automata theory is a central problem studied and developed from their origins by John von Neumann. In this paper, we present an algorithm where any Turing machine can be converted to one-dimensional cellular…
The concept of $\mu-$equicontinuity was introduced by Gilman to classify cellular automata. We show that under some conditions the sequence of Cesaro averages of a measure $\mu,$ converge under the actions of a $\mu -$equicontinuous CA. We…

A number-conserving cellular automaton is a cellular automaton whose states are integers and whose transition function keeps the sum of all cells constant throughout its evolution. It can be seen as a kind of modelization of the physical…
