Compositionality of planar perfect matchings

Titouan Carette, Etienne Moutot, Thomas Perez +1

We exhibit a strong connection between the matchgate formalism introduced by Valiant and the ZW-calculus of Coecke and Kissinger. This connection provides a natural compositional f…

Aperiodicity in Quantum Wang Tilings

Titouan Carette, Etienne Moutot

By reformulating Wang tiles with tensors, we propose a natural generalization to the probabilistic and quantum setting. In this new framework, we introduce notions of tilings and p…

Pattern Complexity of Aperiodic Substitutive Subshifts

Etienne Moutot, Coline Petit-Jean

This paper aims to better understand the link better understand the links between aperiodicity in subshifts and pattern complexity. Our main contribution deals with substitutive su…

Weakly and Strongly Aperiodic Subshifts of Finite Type on Baumslag-Solitar Groups

Solène J. Esnay, Etienne Moutot

We study the periodicity of subshifts of finite type (SFT) on Baumslag-Solitar groups. We show that for residually finite Baumslag-Solitar groups there exist both strongly and weak…

Computational Limitations of Affine Automata

Mika Hirvensalo, Etienne Moutot, Abuzer Yakaryılmaz

We present two new results on the computational limitations of affine automata. First, we show that the computation of bounded-error rational-values affine automata is simulated in…

Decidability and Periodicity of Low Complexity Tilings

Jarkko Kari, Etienne Moutot

In this paper we study colorings (or tilings) of the two-dimensional grid . A coloring is said to be valid with respect to a set of rectangular patter…

The domino problem is undecidable on surface groups

Nathalie Aubrun, Sebastián Barbieri, Etienne Moutot

We show that the domino problem is undecidable on orbit graphs of non-deterministic substitutions which satisfy a technical property. As an application, we prove that the domino pr…

Nivat's Conjecture and Pattern Complexity in Algebraic Subshifts

Jarkko Kari, Etienne Moutot

We study Nivat's conjecture on algebraic subshifts and prove that in some of them every low complexity configuration is periodic. This is the case in the Ledrappier subshift (the 3…

Slopes of 3-dimensional Subshifts of Finite Type

Etienne Moutot, Pascal Vanier

In this paper we study the directions of periodicity of three-dimensional subshifts of finite type (SFTs) and in particular their slopes. A configuration of a subshift has a slope…

On the computational power of affine automata

Mika Hirvensalo, Etienne Moutot, Abuzer Yakaryılmaz

We investigate the computational power of affine automata (AfAs) introduced in [4]. In particular, we present a simpler proof for how to change the cutpoint for any affine language…
