Synchronous Versus Asynchronous Tile-Based Self-Assembly

Authors: Florent Becker, Phillip Drake, Matthew J. Patitz, and Trent A. Rogers

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 347, 31st International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 31) (2025)

Abstract
In this paper we study the relationship between mathematical models of tile-based self-assembly which differ in terms of the synchronicity of tile additions. In the standard abstract Tile Assembly Model (aTAM), each step of assembly consists of a single tile being added to an assembly. At any given time, each location on the perimeter of an assembly to which a tile can legally bind is called a frontier location, and for each step of assembly one frontier location is randomly selected and a tile is added. In the Synchronous Tile Assembly Model (syncTAM), at each step of assembly every frontier location simultaneously receives a tile. Our results show that while directed, non-cooperative syncTAM systems are capable of universal computation (while directed, non-cooperative aTAM systems are known not to be), and they are capable of building shapes that can't be built within the aTAM, the non-cooperative aTAM is also capable of building shapes that can't be built within the syncTAM even cooperatively. We show a variety of results that demonstrate the similarities and differences between these two models.

Complexity of Boolean Automata Networks Under Block-Parallel Update Modes

Authors: Kévin Perrot, Sylvain Sené, and Léah Tapin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 292, 3rd Symposium on Algorithmic Foundations of Dynamic Networks (SAND 2024)

Abstract
Boolean automata networks (aka Boolean networks) are space-time discrete dynamical systems, studied as a model of computation and as a representative model of natural phenomena. A collection of simple entities (the automata) update their 0-1 states according to local rules. The dynamics of the network is highly sensitive to update modes, i.e., to the schedule according to which the automata apply their local rule. A new family of update modes appeared recently, called block-parallel, which is dual to the well studied block-sequential. Although basic, it embeds the rich feature of update repetitions among a temporal updating period, allowing for atypical asymptotic behaviors. In this paper, we prove that it is able to breed complex computations, squashing almost all decision problems on the dynamics to the traditionally highest (for reachability questions) class PSPACE. Despite obtaining these complexity bounds for a broad set of local and global properties, we also highlight a surprising gap: bijectivity is still coNP.

Non-Deterministic Updates of Boolean Networks

Authors: Loïc Paulevé and Sylvain Sené

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 90, 27th IFIP WG 1.5 International Workshop on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems (AUTOMATA 2021)

Abstract
Boolean networks are discrete dynamical systems where each automaton has its own Boolean function for computing its state according to the configuration of the network. The updating mode then determines how the configuration of the network evolves over time. Many of updating modes from the literature, including synchronous and asynchronous modes, can be defined as the composition of elementary deterministic configuration updates, i.e., by functions mapping configurations of the network. Nevertheless, alternative dynamics have been introduced using ad-hoc auxiliary objects, such as that resulting from binary projections of Memory Boolean networks, or that resulting from additional pseudo-states for Most Permissive Boolean networks. One may wonder whether these latter dynamics can still be classified as updating modes of finite Boolean networks, or belong to a different class of dynamical systems. In this paper, we study the extension of updating modes to the composition of non-deterministic updates, i.e., mapping sets of finite configurations. We show that the above dynamics can be expressed in this framework, enabling a better understanding of them as updating modes of Boolean networks. More generally, we argue that non-deterministic updates pave the way to a unifying framework for expressing complex updating modes, some of them enabling transitions that cannot be computed with elementary and non-elementary deterministic updates.
