Fundamental Cycle of a Periodic Box-Ball System
نویسندگان
چکیده
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.

Two Point Correlation Functions for a Periodic Box-Ball System
We investigate correlation functions in a periodic box-ball system. For the second and the third nearest neighbor correlation functions, we give explicit formulae obtained by combinatorial methods. A recursion formula for a specific N -point functions is also presented.

In this paper, we prove that every metric line in the Poincare ball model of hyperbolic geometry is exactly a classical line of itself. We also proved nonexistence of periodic lines in the Poincare ball model of hyperbolic geometry.

Vertex models with quantum group symmetry give rise to integrable cellular automata at q = 0. We study a prototype example known as the periodic box-ball system. The initial value problem is solved in terms of an ultradiscrete analogue of the Riemann theta function whose period matrix originates in the Bethe ansatz at q = 0.

متن کاملPeriodicity in a System of Differential Equations with Finite Delay
The existence and uniqueness of a periodic solution of the system of differential equations d dt x(t) = A(t)x(t − ) are proved. In particular the Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem and the contraction mapping principle are used in the analysis. In addition, the notion of fundamental matrix solution coupled with Floquet theory is also employed.
