Abstract

The paper introduces a notion of cellular game that is intended to represent rationally behaving cells of a cellular automaton. The focus is made on studying properties of functional dependence between strategies of different cells in a Nash equilibrium of such games. The main result is a sound and complete axiomatization of these properties. The construction in the proof of completeness is based on the Fibonacci numbers.
