LAPLACIAN
We choose the plane lattice which is generated by two families of lines which
are
orthogonalto each other. We identifya
cell of the lattice withone
point of thecell, e.g., the midpoint. We calla
set of cells whichare
attached with the reference cella
neighborhood. We call neighborhoodeven
(or odd) if the number of the cells iseven
(respectivelyodd).We give several examples. Some ofthem
are
well known([1]):Moore Neumann Diag Hexagonal Sierpinski
$b$下um $rightarrow$歌$\sim$W
Figure 1. Examplesofneighborhoods
We take the space $F$ of {0,1} valued functions on the plane lattice. Choosing
a
neighborhood $U_{p}$ ,
we
define the Laplacian operationas
follows:
$\Delta_{U_{p}}f(p)=\sum_{q\in U_{p}}(f(q)-f(p))$
Foraninitial function$f_{o^{\in}F}$
,
we consider the dynamicalsystem
$\{f_{n}\},f_{n}=\Delta_{U}f_{n-1}(n=1,2, \ldots)$
.
We call the dynamical systemof
a
givenneighborhood, theneighborhood dynamical system. Forexample, whenwe
choose the Mooreneighborhoodwe
call itMoore dynamical system. Forother neighborhoods,we
call them following the neighborhoodsin
an
analogousmanner.
2. COMPUTER SIMULATION
Choosing
sources
and neighborhoods,we can
realizea
wide class ofphenomena by theseiteration
dynamical systems. We calla
point $Q$a source
ofthe dynamical system$\{f_{n}\}$ if
$f_{n}(Q)=1$ for any step $n$
.
Incase
ofsources we
apply the discrete Laplacianonly at all points except the
sources.
We givenow some
examples of computer simulations ([1], [2]).(1) Ice crystals.
We
can
generate ice crystals under suitable conditions. Wecan
realize them byuse
of the dynamical system of the hexagonal neighborhood. The realizationscan
be obtainedsystematically and
we
may expect to describe its mathematical theory in terms of thedynamical system.
(2)The evolution ofextinct animals ([3]).
We present
a
computer simulation ofone
of extinct animals which is calledechinoderms. The left side is thereal data which is givenby Sepkoski ([6])and theright
side is
a
computer simulation which is given bya
dynamical system of Moore neighborhood witha
singlesource.
We have done the time evolutions of extinct animalsFigure 3. Evolutionof
an
extinct animal(3) Design patterns ([4]).
We
can
produce many kinds of design pattems including carpets and embroidery. Wegive
some
examplesof simulations.Figure4.Generationofdesignpattems
(4) Flower patterns.
Next
we
proceed to the realizations problems of designpattems of flowers. Wesee
thatwe
have possibilities of realizations of flowers byuse
ofour
dynamical systems. This will be performed and published ina
near
hture.(5) Design patterns of butterfly wings.
We
can
also try to realize design pattems of butterfly wings. We notice thatwe can
realizeso
called “snake eyepattern” and “long tail patterns” andwe
can
compare thebody construction scheme at the DNA level. We give several computer simulations. These results will be presented inthe annual meeting
on
BiologicalMathematics and itsapplicationinKyoto2010.

MATHEMATICAL
PROBLEMS ON DISCRETE LAPLACIANS
Herewe recall
some
basic notations onthe dynamical systemsand stateproblemson
mathematical structures ([1], [3], [4])$)$.
At firstwe
notice thatwe
consider dynamicalsystems under the periodic condition. Namely, choosing
an
integer $M$, which is calledthe size,
we
consider the followingperiodic functions:$F(M)=\{f\in F|f(x+mM,y+nM)=f(x,y), (n,m\in Z)\}$
Choosing
a
neighborhood,we
can
definea
discrete Laplacian andwe
can
consider its iteration dynamical system under the periodic condition. Hencewe
can
understand thatwe
consider the dynamicalsystemon
the toms with the size $M\cross M$.
The toms isdenoted by $T(M)$
.
Weprepare several basicnotations:(1)Adynamical system iscalled tohave afixed point, if ョ$k\in N$s.t. $f_{n}=f_{k}(\forall n\geq k)$
(2)Adynamicalsystem is calledperiodic if ョ$n,$ョ$l$
such that $f_{n}=f_{n+kl}\forall k\in N$
If$n=0$, it is calledperiodic simply and if $n\neq 0$
, itis called asymptoticallyperiodic,
respectively.
$f_{n}Q_{j})=1$ $\forall n\in N.j=1,2,$
$\ldots,$
$k$ .
CONJECTURE([1], [3], [4])
We
can
proposeconjectures forsome cases:
(1) In the
case
$M=2^{p}$anda
single source,we
have the following results:$(\alpha)$ If
a
neighborhood is even,we see
that the dynamical systemhasa
fixed point andits
fixed pointcan
be attained after $2^{p}$ (or2
p-l) steps for Moore, Hexagonal,andNeumann(resp. Sierpinski)neighborhoods.
$(\beta)$ If the neighborhood is odd,
we see
that the dynamical system is periodic, itsperiod depends
on
neighborhoods.(2) In the
case
where $M$ is odd, the dynamical system is periodic in thecase
ofa
single
source
with Neumam neighborhood. We give the table of periods for small values of$M$(seeTable 1).$\frac{M35791113151719212325272931}{Period15613306229305111262046204510211638461}$

Theoreml
Let $M=2^{p}$ and let the neighborhood be of Sierpinski type (resp. Neumann type).
Then, in case ofa one point source, the dynamical system reaches at afixed point after
$2^{p}$(resp. 2$p-1$ ) steps.
Proof of the assertion for Sierpinski neighborhood.
We give
a
proofof Theorem I inthecase
$p=2$.
We putthesource
atthecomer
which isdenoted by yellow color. Making iterations,
we
have the assertion. By this shortobservation,
we
knowthatour
assertionmay hold forany$p$.$*$

a
coordinate systemsuchthattheorigin(0,0) islocatedatthe

$\bigcup_{k=0}^{n}N_{k}$

Wecan
prove the followingpropositionwhichproves
theassertionofTheorem Iin the
case
ofgeneral $2^{p}$.
PROPOSITION For the dynamical system $\{f_{n}\}$
with the
source
at the origin,we
have:

on
$N_{n}$,(2) $f_{n}(n, 0)=f_{n}(0,n)=1$ $(0\leq n\leq M-1)$
(3) $f_{n}(i,j)=f_{n}(i-1,j)+f_{n}(i,j-1)$
on
$N_{n}$ (mod 2)(4) The image ofthe Laplacianis
invariant on
$M_{n}:f_{n+1|M_{n}}=f_{n}$ .Remark 1.
By this proposition
we see
the following facts:(i) We seethat the Pascal triangle$mod 2$appears intheuppertrianglepart.

(4) $f_{n+1}(\pm(n+1,0)=1,f_{n+1}(0, \pm(n+1))=1$
on
$N_{n+1}$.

In [5], the concept of the linearization of the discrete Laplacian and the

cases
are

increasing condition. We
can prove

assertionunderthis condition.6. BINOMIAL ANDTRINOMIAL SEQUENCES OFITERATION DYNAMICAL
SYSTEMS OF DISCRETE LAPLACIANS
For
an
iteration dynamical systemwe
have configurations whichconstitute
distributions of $0$ and 1. We will obtain binomial and trinomialsequences
for thedynamical systems. In fact,
we
have the usual $mod 2$ binomial sequence ffom theSierpinski dynamical system. We listup
some
interestingsequenceswithout proofs. Theexact mathematical treatments will be given
in
anotherpaper.
At firstwe
introduce the following three “triangles” of integers and associated $mod 2$ reductions whichare
calledtheir “sequences”:
(1) Wolfram triangle andWolframsequence.

7. SEQUENCE ANALYSIS ON ITERATION DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS OF
DISCRETELAPLACIANS
Inthis section
we
suggesta
new
method forthe analysis of dynamical systems byuse
of binomial andtrinomial sequences. We introduceaconcept of“sequence analysis”of thedynamical systems choosing
sequences
appearing in the dynamical systems. Herewe
propose severalproblems conceming sequenceanalysis. Comparison problem.
We consider thecomparisonoftwo dynamical systems. One ofthe interestingquestions
is
for instance, whether the dynamical systemsare
equivalent. For example,we
can
askthe following: Choosing
some
sequences of the both systems andcomparing
them,can
we
derive the equivalence of the systems? Herewe compare
the Wolfram dynamicalsystemwith the Neumann system. We noticethe followingtheorem duetoX. Li([8]):
Theorem (Comparison Theorem [8]).
The
access
speeds to the fixed points of Neumann dynamical system is identical with thatofWolffamdynamical system.This theorem
can
be treated byuse
of the comparison of both associated binomialsequences.
Ina
similar mamer,we may
expect toprove a
similar theorem betweenNeumann dynamical system and diagonal Neumann dynamical system. Wemay expect
toprove thefollowing
assertion:
ASSERTION.The fixed pointtheorem holds for the Neumam neighborhood, ifand only it holds for the diagonalNeumannneighborhood.
Strategy to the proof of the assertion:.
The resultmayfollow ffom the fact that the
access
speeds tothe fixedpoints of the bothLaplacians of diagonal Neumann neighborhoods and Neumalm neighborhood
are
identical after rotationbythe angle $\pi/4$
.
Generation problem.
We have obtained only three kinds of sequences, the Pascal sequence, the Wolffam
sequence and the trinomial sequence. Can
we
find other sequences formore
complicated neighborhoods, for example Hexagonal neighborhoods? In generalwe
mayproposethe following problem: PROBLEM.
Can
we
characterize the dynamical system in terms ofthesequences
associated to the dynamical systems?REFERENCES
