Global Recurrence Plot of Cellular Automaton Dynamic

A global recurrence plot defined by the expression , where is a function of the step, shows the recurrence of states in the space of all possible states (phase space). Instances of indicate two steps at which the same state occurs.
Recurrence plots can be used to analyze cellular automaton (CA) evolution. Calculating the mean, total, or binary-to-decimal of each step in an elementary CA's evolution illustrates its behavior. This Demonstration uses random finite initial conditions.
