We study dynamical systems using measures taking values in a non-Archimedean field. The underlying space for such measure is a zero-dimensional topological space. In this paper we elaborate on the natural translation of several notions,…
The uncertainty of multidimensional shift spaces draws attracted attention of researchers. For example, the emptiness problem is undecidable; there exist aperiodic shifts of finite type; there is a nonempty shift of finite type exhibiting…
Understanding the functional architecture of complex systems is crucial to illuminate their inner workings and enable effective methods for their prediction and control. Recent advances have introduced tools to characterise emergent…
Usually, the dynamics of linear time-invariant systems described by an integral operator of convolution type, which is defined in the Hilbert space of Lebesgue square integrable functions on the whole line. Such a description leads to…
In game semantics and related approaches to programming language semantics, programs are modelled by interaction dialogues. Such models have recently been used in the design of new compilation methods, e.g. for hardware synthesis or for…
Understanding the dynamical behavior of complex systems is of exceptional relevance in everyday life, from biology to economy. In order to describe the dynamical organization of complex systems, existing methods require the knowledge of the…
The operational semantics of interactive systems is usually described by labeled transition systems. Abstract semantics (that is defined in terms of bisimilarity) is characterized by the final morphism in some category of coalgebras. Since…
Spatiotemporal flows of neural activity, such as traveling waves, have been observed throughout the brain since the earliest recordings; yet there is still little consensus on their functional role. Recent experiments and models have linked…
In the manuscript titled "Computation environment (1)", we introduced a notion called computation environment as an interactive model for computation and complexity theory. In this model, Turing machines are not autonomous entities and find…
We introduce a new formalisation of languages, called keyboards. We consider a set of elementary operations (writing/erasing a letter, going to the right or to the left,...) and we define a keyboard as a set of finite sequences of such…
Experimental results often do not assess network structure; rather, the network structure is inferred by the dynamics of the nodes. From the dynamics of the nodes one then constructs a network of functional relations, termed the functional…
Emerging computational paradigms, such as probabilistic and hybrid programming, introduce new primitive operations that often need to be combined with classic programming constructs. However, it still remains a challenge to provide a…
Dynamical phase transitions are defined as non-analytic points of the large deviation function of current fluctuations. We show that for boundary driven systems, many dynamical phase transitions can be identified using the geometrical…
We present several topics involving the computation of dynamical systems. The emphasis is on work in progress and the presentation is informal -- there are many technical details which are not fully discussed. The topics are chosen to…
Given a dynamical system, we study the so-called space of shift functions thus introducing another vision on bifurcations and chaos. As an application of the obtained results, we give a partial solution to an open problem formulated in…
This paper studies two-variable compressions of shifts associated to rational inner functions on the bidisk; these generalize the classical compressions of the shift associated to finite Blasckhe products and are unitarily equivalent to…
We introduce invariants, called shifting numbers, that measure the asymptotic amount by which an autoequivalence of a triangulated category translates inside the category. The invariants are analogous to Poincare translation numbers that…
Resent works of Hawking and Susskind suggested that information is conserved in the universe. We extend this thesis and propose that dynamics of information - computations can conserve in Anti-de-Sitter cosmological model. Information…
We give a description of the link between topological dynamical systems and their dimension groups. The focus is on minimal systems and, in particular, on substitution shifts. We describe in detail the various classes of systems including…
The aim of this paper is to propose an alternative behavioural definition of computation (and of a computer) based simply on whether a system is capable of reacting to the environment-the input-as reflected in a measure of programmability.…
