This paper introduces a simple formalism for dealing with deterministic, non- deterministic and stochastic cellular automata in an unified and composable manner. This formalism allows for local probabilistic correlations, a feature which is…
We show how the trajectories of $d$-dimensional cellular automata (CA) can be used to determine the ground states of $(d+1)$-dimensional classical spin models, and we characterise their quantum phase transition, when in the presence of a…
Quantum cellular automata are alternative quantum-computing paradigms to quantum Turing machines and quantum circuits. Their working mechanisms are inherently automated, therefore measurement free, and they act in a translation invariant…
Cellular automata (CA) have been utilized for decades as discrete models of many physical, mathematical, chemical, biological, and computing systems. The most widely known form of CA, the elementary cellular automaton (ECA), has been…
Probabilistic cellular automata describe the dynamics of classical spin models, which, for sufficiently small temperature $T$, can serve as classical memory capable of storing information even in the presence of nonzero external magnetic…
Cellular Automata (CA) theory is a discrete model that represents the state of each of its cells from a finite set of possible values which evolve in time according to a pre-defined set of transition rules. CA have been applied to a number…
How do cellular automata behave in the limit of a very large number of cells? Is there a continuum limit with simple properties? We attack this problem by mapping certain classes of automata to quantum field theories for which powerful…
This paper presents solutions to Density Classification Task (DCT) using a variant of Cellular Automata (CA) called Programmable Cellular Automata (PCA). The translation property as well as the density preserving property of fundamental CA…
A 3D Cellular Automaton model developed by the authors to deal with the dynamics of N-body interactions has been adapted to investigate the head-on collision of two identical bound clusters of particles, and the ensuing process of…
The Cellular Automaton (CA) modeling and simulation of solid dynamics is a long-standing difficult problem. In this paper we present a new two-dimensional CA model for solid dynamics. In this model the solid body is represented by a set of…
The purpose of the present study is to search one-dimensional Cellular Automata (CA) rules which will solve the density classification task (DCT) perfectly. The mathematical analysis of number conserving functions over binary strings of…
We show that a behaviour analogous to degenerate hyperbolicity can occur in nearest-neighbour cellular automata (CA) with three states. We construct a 3-state rule by "lifting" elementary CA rule 140. Such "lifted" rule is equivalent to…
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…
Computational power can be measured by assigning an algebraic structure to a computational device. Here, we convert a small patch of Conway's Game of Life into a transformation semigroup. The conversion captures not only time evolution but…
A cellular automaton in which cells represent agents playing the Prisoner's Dilemma (PD) game following the simple "win-stay, loose-shift" strategy is studied. Individuals with binary behavior, such as they can either cooperate (C) or…
Describing complex phenomena by means of cellular automata (CA) has shown to be a very effective approach in pure and applied sciences. In fact, the number of published papers concerning this topic has tremendously increased over the last…
In this thesis we will work under the premises of the Cellular Automata Interpretation of QM, by Gerard 't Hooft, according to whom particles evolve following the rules of Cellular Automata (CA), a mathematical model consisting of discrete…
In this paper we study $\nu$-CA on one-dimensional lattice defined over a finite set of local rules. The main goal is to determine how the local rules can be mixed to ensure the produced $\nu$-CA has some properties. In a first part, we…
Vertical decomposition is a widely used general technique for decomposing the cells of arrangements of semi-algebraic sets in ${{\mathbb R}}^d$ into constant-complexity subcells. In this paper, we settle in the affirmative a few…
Quantum cellular automata consist in arrays of identical finite-dimensional quantum systems, evolving in discrete-time steps by iterating a unitary operator G. Moreover the global evolution G is required to be causal (it propagates…
