Fundamental Cycle of a Periodic Box-Ball System

arXiv:nlin/0208042 · doi:10.1088/0305-4470/36/1/307

Abstract

We investigate a soliton cellular automaton (Box-Ball system) with periodic boundary conditions. Since the cellular automaton is a deterministic dynamical system that takes only a finite number of states, it will exhibit periodic motion. We determine its fundamental cycle for a given initial state.
