Pulsar

Per. 3

IS-osc

Since the pulsar consists of four congruent parts without any mutual genetic contact, it is sufficient to study only one such part.
It turns out that even this subpattern consists of two genetically disconnected parts. With the given numbering the stators 1, 3 and 4, and the (secondary) rotors 7, 8 and 10 build up an independent substructure of the pulsars.
To be precise, the described subpatterns interact in how they create and suppress neighgbouring living cells, but they do not interact genetically, i.e. they don't affect the colour indices outside the subpattern.

Cycle matrix Det = 4/531441


The order between rows and columns agrees with the cell numbering given above right. Note that the determinant of the cycle matrix is ≠ 0. This means that any colour index vector can be recovered from earlier vectors.
Limit matrix



The above matrices show a submatrix of the limit matrix given with exact and floating numbers . The columns show (from left to right) the impact of the stator cells 1, 3 and 4 on the rotor cells (from top to bottom) 7, 8 and 10.
As explained above these cells form a genetically independent subpattern of the Pulsar. The three column sums are 49/23, 16/23 and 4/23, which give the total genetic impact of the stator cells 1, 3 and 4 respectively.
