LEF-groups and endomorphisms of symbolic varieties

Abstract

Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. Denote $A=X(k)$ the set of rational points of $X$. We investigate invertible algebraic cellular automata $\tau :A^G\to A^G$ whose local defining map is induced by some morphism of algebraic varieties $X^M\to X$ where $M$ is a finite memory. When $G$ is locally embeddable into finite groups (LEF), then we show that the inverses of reversible algebraic cellular automata are automatically algebraic cellular automata. Generalizations are also obtained for finite product Hopfian pointed object alphabets in concrete categories.
