We discuss example of an elementary cellular automaton for which the density of ones decays toward its limiting value as a power of the number of iterations $n$. Using the fact that this rule conserves the number of blocks 10 and that…
In a previous work a procedure was decribed for dividing the $3 \times N$-dimensional conformational space of a molecular system into a number of discrete cells, this partition allowed the building of a combinatorial structure from data…
Neural cellular automata (Neural CA) are a recent framework used to model biological phenomena emerging from multicellular organisms. In these systems, artificial neural networks are used as update rules for cellular automata. Neural CA are…
The paper proposes a simple formalism for dealing with deterministic, non-deterministic and stochastic cellular automata in a unifying and composable manner. Armed with this formalism, we extend the notion of intrinsic simulation between…
Invertible cellular automata are useful as models of physical systems with microscopically revesible dyanmics. There are several well-understood ways to construct them: partitioning rules, second-order rules, and alternating-grid rules. We…
John H. Conway's Game of Life, as well as cellular automata in the larger family of Life-like CA, are discrete: the cells have a binary state space and the birth and survival transition rules are 9-bits apiece. Inspired by Life, several…
We prove that many dynamical properties of group cellular automata (i.e., cellular automata defined on any finite group and with global rule which is an endomorphism), including surjectivity, injectivity, sensitivity to initial conditions,…
There have been several non-axiomatic approaches taken to define Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA). Partitioned QCA (PQCA) are the most canonical of these non-axiomatic definitions. In this work we show that any QCA can be put into the form…
This note is a survey of examples and results about cellular automata with the purpose of recalling that there is no 'universal' way of being computationally universal. In particular, we show how some cellular automata can embed efficient…
Cyclic cellular automata (CCA) are models of excitable media. Started from random initial conditions, they produce several different kinds of spatial structure, depending on their control parameters. We introduce new tools from information…
Generalizing the motion representation we introduced for number-conserving rules, we give a systematic way to construct a generalized motion representation valid for non-conservative rules using the expression of the current, which appears…
In this paper we propose a rule-independent description of applications of cellular automata rules for one-dimensional additive cellular automata on cylinders of finite sizes. This description is shown to be a useful tool for for answering…
The probabilistic cellular automaton (PCA) method is highlighted for its relatively simple numerical algorithm and low computational cost in the simulation of microstructural evolution. In this method, probabilistic state change rules are…
Computing the configuration of any one-dimensional cellular automaton at generation $n$ can be accelerated by constructing and running a composite rule with a radius proportional to $\log n$. The new automaton is the original one, but with…
We present evidence that operation of QCA (Quantum Cellular Automaton) cells with four dots is possible with an occupancy of 4N+2 electrons per cell (N being an integer). We show that interaction between cells can be described in terms of a…
In this paper, we significantly improve a previous result by the same author showing the existence of a weakly universal cellular automaton with five states living in the hyperbolic 3D-space. Here, we get such a cellular automaton with…
New Cellular Automata associated with the Schroedinger discrete spectral problem are derived. These Cellular Automata possess an infinite (countable) set of constants of motion.
A new kind of cellular automaton (CA) for the study of the dynamics of urban systems is proposed. The state of a cell is not described using a finite set, but by means of continuum variables. A population sector is included, taking into…
The cellular automata with local permutation invariance are considered. We show that in the two-state case the set of such automata coincides with the generalized Game of Life family. We count the number of equivalence classes of the rules…
A one-dimensional cellular automaton $\tau : A^\mathbb{Z} \to A^\mathbb{Z}$ is a transformation of the full shift defined via a finite neighborhood $S \subset \mathbb{Z}$ and a local function $\mu : A^S \to A$. We study the family of…
