We describe a C program for symmetry analysis of discrete systems. Among other features, the program constructs and investigates phase portraits of discrete dynamical systems modulo groups of their symmetries, searches dynamical systems possessing specific properties, e.g., reversibility, computes microcanonical partition functions and searches phase transitions in mesoscopic systems. Some computational results and observations are presented. In particular, we explain formation of moving soliton-like structures similar to ``spaceships'' in cellular automata.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-10-08T12:35:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "discrete systems", "systems possessing specific properties", "discrete dynamical systems modulo groups", "searches dynamical systems possessing specific" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0706.3646K" } } }
