Unitary Cellular Automata and Convolution Algebras
arXiv:1608.05259
Abstract
The original local, discrete example of Linear Unitary Cellular Automata (LUCA) is analyzed in terms of a new representation previously introduced in [1] for classical CA. Several important underlying symmetries are reviewed and their tight relationship with both signal and coding theory as well as with combinatorics is underlined. A class of analog implementations in the form of Linear Transmission Line Networks (LTLN) is described as possible emulators of this type of dynamics.
