Universality and Decidability of Number-Conserving Cellular Automata | Andres Moreira
; | Date: |
17 Jun 2003 | Journal: | Final version published in Theoretical Computer Science, 292:711--721 (2003) | Subject: | Cellular Automata and Lattice Gases | nlin.CG | Abstract: | Number-conserving cellular automata (NCCA) are particularly interesting, both because of their natural appearance as models of real systems, and because of the strong restrictions that number-conservation implies. Here we extend the definition of the property to include cellular automata with any set of states in $set$, and show that they can be always extended to ``usual’’ NCCA with contiguous states. We show a way to simulate any one dimensional CA through a one dimensional NCCA, proving the existence of intrinsically universal NCCA. Finally, we give an algorithm to decide, given a CA, if its states can be labeled with integers to produce a NCCA, and to find this relabeling if the answer is positive. | Source: | arXiv, nlin.CG/0306032 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
