International audience We discuss a close link between two seemingly different topics studied in the cellular automata literature: additive conservation laws and invariant probability measures. We provide an elementary proof of a simple correspondence between invariant full-support Bernoulli measures and interaction-free conserved quantities in the case of one-dimensional surjective cellular automata. We also discuss a generalization of this fact to Markov measures and higher-range conservation laws in arbitrary dimension. As a corollary, we show that the uniform Bernoulli measure is the only shift-invariant, full-support Markov measure that is invariant under a strongly transitive cellular automaton.

This paper studies the quantitative behavior of a class of one-dimensional cellular automata, named weakly permutive cellular automata, acting on the space of all doubly infinite sequences with values in a finite ringℤm,m≥2. We calculate the measure-theoretic entropy and the topological entropy of weakly permutive cellular automata with respect to any invariant measure on the spaceℤmℤ. As an application, it is shown that the uniform Bernoulli measure is the unique maximal measure for linear cellular automata among the Markov measures.

In this short paper, without considering the natural extension we study the directional entropy of a Z2-action Φ generated by an invertible one-dimensional linear cellular automaton [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], over the ring Zpk(with p a prime number and k ≥ 2), where gcd (p, λr) = 1 and p ∣ λifor all i ≠ r, and the shift map acting on the compact metric space [Formula: see text]. Without loss of generality, we consider k = 2. We prove that the directional entropy hv(Φ)(v = (s, q) ∈ R) of a Z2-action with respect to a Markov measure μπPover space [Formula: see text] defined by a stochastic matrix P = (aij) and a probability vector π = {π0, π1, …, πp2-1} is bounded above by [Formula: see text].

International audience We study iterations of the Bernoulli measure under nearest-neighbour asynchronous binary cellular automata (CA) with a single transition. For these CA, we show that a coarse-level description of the orbit of the Bernoulli measure can be obtained, that is, one can explicitly compute measures of short cylinder sets after arbitrary number of iterations of the CA. In particular, we give expressions for probabilities of ones for all three minimal single-transition rules, as well as expressions for probabilities of blocks of length 3 for some of them. These expressions can be interpreted as "response curves'', that is, curves describing the dependence of the final density of ones on the initial density of ones.

International audience In this paper we define products of one-dimensional Number Conserving Cellular Automata (NCCA) and show that surjective NCCA with 2 blocks (i.e radius 1/2) can always be represented as products of shifts and identites. In particular, this shows that surjective 2-block NCCA are injective.

The existence of conservation laws (invariants) are discussed for various one-dimensional cellular automata. The cellular automata are derived from partial differential equations. Both irreversible and reversible cellular automata are investigated.
