Abstract

We suggest necessary conditions of soficness of multidimensional shifts formulated in terms of resource-bounded Kolmogorov complexity. Using this technique we provide examples of effective and non-sofic shifts on Z^2 with very low block complexity: the number of globally admissible patterns of size n x n grows only as a polynomial in n.
