Nesting occurs in all cellular automata with additive rules (see page 955 ).
If k is irrational then equidistribution of Mod[Binomial[t, x], k] implies that all possible values eventually appear; the corresponding patterns seem fairly irregular, as shown below.
Connection [of geometric substitution systems] with digit sequences Patterns after t steps can be viewed as containing all t -digit integers in an appropriate complex base.
Cellular automata on networks The cellular automata that we have considered so far all have cells arranged in regular arrays.
In plants, as we have discussed, essentially all cells have rigid cellulose walls.
Testing all 11,019,960,576 possible programs of length eight revealed just this and 125 similar cases of complex behavior.
If theoretical science is to be possible at all, then at some level the systems it studies must follow definite rules.
For all one need do is just set up a sequence of possible simple programs, and then run them and see how they behave.
And is it perhaps all somehow just a reflection of randomness that was inserted in the initial conditions?
To a good approximation, all the molecules in a snowflake ultimately lie on a simple hexagonal grid.
