=ADD= =reftype= 14 =number= 93-46 =year= 1993 =author= Sutner; Klaus =title= Linear Cellular Automata and their Fischer Automata =month= 08 =keywords= automata theory =abstract= We construct a class of binary linear cellular automata whose corresponding minimal automata exhibit exponential blow-up. The automata have Hamming distance 1 to a bideterministic automaton. Moreover, the equivalent minimal Fischer automata are obtained from the minimal automata by deleting the sink and therefore have a maximal complexity.
