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…

We say that a Cellular Automata (CA) is coalescing when its execution on two distinct (random) initial configurations in the same asynchronous mode (the same cells are updated in each configuration at each time step) makes both…
