Cobweb Diagrams of Elementary Cellular Automata
My recent publication at the Wolfram Demonstrations Project: Cobweb Diagrams of Elementary Cellular Automata “Each possible state in the evolution of an elementary cellular automaton (ECA) can be uniquely labeled by an integer. For a finite-width ECA, this set is mapped to itself during the ECA evolution. Thus an ECA defines a recurrence relation on a […]
Lissajous Patterns on a Sphere Surface
Another Demonstration of mine was published at the Wolfram Demonstration Project. It helps to explore and create spherical artistic designs. I generalized Lissajous curves to spherical coordinates. Azimuthal and polar angles undergo oscillations while the radius is kept constant. Although with the parameterization given I sought to emphasize the artistic side of Lissajous patterns, other spherical parameterizations […]
Voronoi Image of Random Walks
The Wolfram Demonstration Project has an excellent example by Yu-Sung Chang showing construction of a Voronoi diagram using distance transform on a set of points in 2D plane. Here same method is used on a set of points which perform random walks. All calculations and animation are done in Mathematica. Yu-Sung Chang Demonstration: demonstrations.wolfram.com/VoronoiImage/ Voronoi Image […]

Vitaliy's bookshelf: read
Rare exceptional book. Harry Potter for adults. Long thoroughly enjoyable volume. Magic told as if would be part of society. Cold British political satire soaking every page, every sentence. I would call this “action in slow motion”. Bec...
This is a great little book. I *highly* recommend the audio book edition read by Mark Deakins. A few good qoutes.
“[The Dog Stars] gripped me—it’s the real deal. Heller’s voice is extraordinary and his narrator’s toughness seems to hide...
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of fiction. Exceptional style of writing wraps twists of story-line unraveling the mystery in rich poetic and metaphoric language. Besides dramatic roller-coaster of events and em...
It is definitely a well written book and it is worth reading if you are interested in fresh unusual plot. While twists and turns are NOT predictable and surprise one pleasantly, keep one guessing, the moral philosophy IS quite predictabl...
