The first two conference days were held in the Educarium building of the University of Turku, while the talks of the third day were given onboard passenger ferry boats in the beautiful Turku archipelago, along the route Turku–Mariehamn–Turku. The con- ference was organized by FUNDIM, the Fundamentals of Computing and Discrete Mathematics research center at the mathematics department of the University of Turku. The program of the conference included 17 submitted papers that were selected by the international program committee, based on three peer reviews of each paper. These papers form the core of these proceedings. I want to thank the members of the program committee and the external referees for the excellent work that have done in choosing the papers to be presented in the conference. In addition to the submitted papers, the program of JAC 2010 included four dis- tinguished invited speakers: Michel Coornaert (Universit´ede Strasbourg, France), Bruno Durand (Universit´ede Provence, Marseille, France), Dora Giammarresi (Uni- versit`adi Roma Tor Vergata, Italy) and Martin Kutrib (Universit¨atGießen, Ger- many). I sincerely thank the invited speakers for accepting our invitation to come and give a plenary talk in the conference. The invited talk by Bruno Durand was eventually given by his co-author Alexander Shen, and I thank him for accepting to make the presentation with a short notice. Abstracts or extended abstracts of the invited presentations appear in the first part of this volume. The program also included several informal presentations describing very recent developments and ongoing research projects. I wish to thank all the speakers for their contribution to the success of the symposium. I also would like to thank the sponsors and our collaborators: the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters, the French National Research Agency project EMC (ANR-09-BLAN-0164), Turku Centre for Computer Science, the University of Turku, and Centro Hotel. Finally, I sincerely thank the members of the local organizing committee for making the conference possible. These proceedings are published both in an electronic format and in print. The electronic proceedings are available on the electronic repository HAL, managed by several French research agencies. The printed version is published in the general publications series of TUCS, Turku Centre for Computer Science. We thank both HAL and TUCS for accepting to publish the proceedings.

The Moore-Myhill Garden of Eden theorem asserts that a cellular automaton with finite alphabet over a free abelian group of rank 2 is surjective if and only if it is pre-injective. Here, pre-injectivity means that two configurations which coincide outside of a finite subset of the group must coincide everywhere if they have the same image under the cellular automaton. The Garden of Eden theorem has been extended to amenable groups by Ceccherini-Silberstein, Machi and Scarabotti and to cellular automata defined over strongly irreducible subshifts of finite type by Fiorenzi. I will discuss these extensions as well as linear versions jointly obtained with Ceccherini-Silberstein. c 1 Journees´ Automates Cellulaires 2010 (Turku), pp. 2-7 1D EFFECTIVELY CLOSED SUBSHIFTS AND 2D TILINGS BRUNO DURAND 1, ANDREI ROMASHCHENKO 2, AND ALEXANDER SHEN 2 1 LIF, CNRS & Aix–Marseille Universit´e E-mail address: [email protected] URL: http://www.lif.univ-mrs.fr/~bdurand 2 LIF, CNRS & Aix–Marseille Universit´e,on leave from IITP RAS E-mail address: {Andrei.Romashchenko,Alexander.Shen}@lif.univ-mrs.fr Abstract. Michael Hochman showed that every 1D effectively closed subshift can be simulated by a 3D subshift of finite type and asked whether the same can be done in 2D. It turned out that the answer is positive and necessary tools were already developed in tilings theory. We discuss two alternative approaches: first, developed by N. Aubrun and M. Sablik, goes back to Leonid Levin; the second one, developed by the authors, goes back to Peter Gacs. 1. Simulation Let A be a finite alphabet and let F be an enumerable set of A-strings. Con- sider all biinfinite A-sequences (i.e., mappings of type Z A) that do not contain substrings from F . The set of these sequences is effectively→ closed (its complement is a union of an enumerable set of intervals in Cantor topology) and invariant under (left and right) shifts. Sets constructed in this way are called effectively closed 1D subshifts. Effectively closed 2D subshifts are defined in a similar way; instead of biinfinite sequences we have configurations, i.e., mappings of type Z2 A, and instead of forbidden strings we have forbidden patterns (rectangles filled with→ A-letters). Given the set F of forbidden patterns, we consider the set of all configurations where no elements of F appear. This set of configurations is closed under vertical and horizontal shifts. If F is enumerable, we get effectively closed 2D subshifts; if F is finite, we get 2D subshifts of finite type. 2D subshifts of finite type are closely related to tilings. A tile is a square with colored sides (colors are taken from some finite set C). A tile set is a set of tiles, i.e., a subset of C4, since each tile is determined by four colors (upper, lower, left, and right). For a tile set τ, we consider all τ-tilings, i.e., the tilings of the entire plane by translated copies of τ-tiles with matching colors. Key words and phrases: effectively closed subshifts, subshifts of finite type, tilings. The paper was supported part by NAFIT ANR-08-EMER-008-01 grant, part by EMC ANR- 09-BLAN-0164-01. c 2 1D EFFECTIVELY CLOSED SUBSHIFTS AND 2D TILINGS 3 Tilings can be considered as a special case of 2D subshifts of finite type. In- deed, subshift is governed by local rules (forbidden pattern say what is not allowed according to these rules). In tilings the rules are extremely local: they say that the neighbor tiles should have matching colors, i.e., 1 2 rectangles where the colors do not match, are forbidden. × So every tile set determines a subshift of finite type (the alphabet is a tile set). The reverse statement is also true if we allow the extension of an alphabet. (It is natural since we have to simulate any local rule by a more restricted class of matching rules.) Formally, for every alphabet A and subshift S of finite type we can find: a set of colors C; • a tile set τ C4; • a mapping d⊂: τ A such• that every τ-tiling→ after applying d to each tile becomes an element of S and every element of S can be obtained in this way from some τ-tiling.

This stronger{than{ classical correlation is the \fuel" for quantum computing. In 1991 Schumacher forwarded a beautiful geometric approach, analogous to the well-known result of Bell, to capture non-classicality of this correlation for a singlet state. He used well-established information distance defined on an ensemble of identically{prepared states. He calculated that for certain detector settings used to measure the entangled state, the resulting geometry violated a triangle inequality | a violation that is not possible classically. This provided a novel information{based geometric Bell inequality in terms of a \covariance distance." Here we experimentally- reproduce his construction and demonstrate a definitive violation for a Bell state of two photons based on the usual spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a paired BBO crystal.

  • The Universe As a Cyclic Organized Information
    NeuroQuantology | March 2015 | Volume 13 | Issue 1 | Page 1 Meijer D.K.F., John Wheeler’s world revised The Universe as a Cyclic Organized Information System: John Wheeler’s World Revisited Dirk K. F. Meijer ABSTRACT This essay highlights the scientific vision of John Archibald Wheeler, a giant of 20th century physics. His ideas provided the important insight that humanity may be in the very center of disclosure and manifestation of the evolution of our universe. This on the basis of scientific reasoning derived from quantum physics rather than simple anthropocentrism or scale chauvinism. Wheeler, the Joseph Henry Professor of Physics Emeritus at Princeton University, became 96. Over a long, productive scientific life, he was known for his drive to address big, overarching questions in physics, subjects which he liked to be merged with philosophical questions about the origin of matter, information and the universe. His interests ranged far and wide and were characterized by true fearlessness. Wheeler's work was not only in gravity and nuclear physics. In the 1950s Wheeler grew increasingly intrigued by the philosophical implications of quantum physics. According to Wheeler, there was no universe until the rise of consciousness to perceive it. In fact, Wheeler was one of the first prominent physicists seriously to propose that reality might not be a wholly physical phenomenon. In some sense, Wheeler suggested, reality grows out of the act of observation, and thus consciousness itself: it is “participatory.” He also stated that information is the most fundamental building block of reality, and that the universe should be seen as a self- synthesized information system: a self-excited circuit that is developing through a (closed loop) cycle.
