Transitive behavior of
reversible one dimensional cellular automata
We have seen that some restrictions in the configurations define both periodic orbits and non-wandering centered cylinder sets in
reversible one dimensional cellular automata. Now is desirable to consider not only one but all the possible mappings that a sequence
has to. This can be done using again block permutations and the process is the following:
- For a sequence of states in the set , take its mapping to an unique block using the block permutation .
- Associate the element with all the elements in the set and the element with all the elements in the set .
- With the associations and and using the block permutation , form the respective list of the mappings from these associations to sequences and of states in the set .
- Using the block permutation , every list of sequences and of states defined by and , maps respectively to a list of blocks with the form and .
- From the last lists, take only all the different elements in the first list and all the different elements in the second list.
- Form the cartesian product of such lists. This cartesian product form a new list of blocks with the form .
- The list of blocks maps to a list of sequences using the block permutation . Thus, we have a subset of the set .
In this way, we have that an initial sequence maps to a set of sequences placed in the same position and therefore we have all the possible mappings from sequences to sequences in the set as is showed in Figure 12.

Using all the sequences of states in the set for defining centered cylinder sets
, the previous process defines the possible mappings from a centered cylinder set to other centered cylinder sets. In this way, we can use this process for detecting transitive behavior among centered cylinder sets that cover all the configuration space
.
