چکیده

A cellular automaton (CA) exhibits ‘emergent defect dynamics’ (EDD) if generic initial conditions rapidly coalesce into large, homogeneous ‘domains’ (exhibiting some spatial pattern) separated by moving ‘defects’. There are many known examples of EDD in one-dimensional CA, but not in higher dimensions. We describe the results of an automated search for two-dimensional CA exhibiting EDD. We found a plethora of examples of EDD, but we also found that the proportion of CA with EDD declines rapidly with increasing neighbourhood size.

The dynamics of defect ensembles inone - dimensional cellular

We investigate the dynamics of ensembles of diiusive defects in one-dimensional deter-ministic cellular automata. The work builds on earlier results on individual random walks in c.a. (5;6). Here we give a natural condition guaranteeing diiusive behavior also in the presence of other defects. Simple branching and birth mechanisms are introduced and prototype classes of cellular automata exhibit...
