We investigate shift-invariant transformations, also known as rotation-symmetric vectorial Boolean functions, on $n$ bits that are induced from Boolean functions on $k$ bits, for $k\leq n$. We consider such transformations that are not…
In this paper, we investigate permutation rotation-symmetric (shift-invariant) vectorial Boolean functions on $n$ bits that are liftings from Boolean functions on $k$ bits, for $k\leq n$. These functions generalize the well-known map used…
Reversible Boolean function is a one-to-one function which maps $n$-bit input to $n$-bit output. Reversible logic synthesis has been widely studied due to its relationship with low-energy computation as well as quantum computation. In this…
The derivatives of a Boolean function are defined up to any order. The Taylor and MacLaurin expansions of a Boolean function are thus obtained. The last corresponds to the ring sum expansion (RSE) of a Boolean function, and is a more…
Classification of Non-linear Boolean functions is a long-standing problem in the area of theoretical computer science. In this paper, effort has been made to achieve a systematic classification of all n-variable Boolean functions, where…
We present a complete classification of all possible sets of classical reversible gates acting on bits, in terms of which reversible transformations they generate, assuming swaps and ancilla bits are available for free. Our classification…
Bijections between sets may be seen as discrete (or crisp) unitary transformations used in quantum computations. So discrete quantum cellular automata are cellular automata with reversible transition functions. This note studies on 1d…
We pursue a systematic study of the following problem. Let f:{0,1}^n -> {0,1} be a (usually monotone) Boolean function whose behaviour is well understood when the input bits are identically independently distributed. What can be said about…
Causal Graph Dynamics extend Cellular Automata to arbitrary, bounded-degree, time-varying graphs. The whole graph evolves in discrete time steps, and this global evolution is required to have a number of physics-like symmetries:…
We provide two sufficient and necessary conditions to characterize any $n$-bit partial Boolean function with exact quantum 1-query complexity. Using the first characterization, we present all $n$-bit partial Boolean functions that depend on…
Fungal automata are a variation of the two-dimensional sandpile automaton of Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld (Phys. Rev. Lett. 1987). In each step toppling cells emit grains only to some of their neighbors chosen according to a specific update…
We propose a method for constructing 9-variable cryptographic Boolean functions from the iterates of 5-variable cellular automata rules. We then analyze, for important cryptographic properties of 5-variable cellular automata rules, how they…
One-dimensional cellular automata are discrete dynamical systems that operate on an infinite lattice of sites and are characterized by the locality and uniformity of their update rule. Permutations of the state set and isometric…
We consider random boolean cellular automata on the integer lattice, i.e., the cells are identified with the integers from 1 to $N$. The behaviour of the automaton is mainly determined by the support of the random variable that selects one…
A family of reversible deterministic cellular automata, including the rules 54 and 201 of [Bobenko et al., Commun. Math. Phys. 158, 127 (1993)] as well as their kinetically constrained quantum (unitary) or stochastic deformations, is shown…
Motivated by an attempt to develop a method for solving initial value problems in a class of one dimensional periodic cellular automata (CA) associated with crystal bases and soliton equations, we consider a generalization of a simple…
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…
We consider the range of possible dynamics of cellular automata (CA) on two-sided beta-shifts $S_\beta$. We show that any reversible CA $F:S_\beta\to S_\beta$ has an almost equicontinuous direction whenever $S_\beta$ is not sofic. This has…
Random boolean cellular automata are investigated, where each gate has two randomly chosen inputs and is randomly assigned a boolean function of its inputs. The effect of non-uniform distributions on the choice of the boolean functions is…
Semi-bent Boolean functions are interesting from a cryptographic standpoint, since they possess several desirable properties such as having a low and flat Walsh spectrum, which is useful to resist linear cryptanalysis. In this paper, we…
