Chip-Firing with Walls and Dying Vertices

Year: 2024 Authors: Benjamin R. Trube

Core claim

Uniform handling of firings and deaths yields a unique stable configuration even as walls and dying vertices alter graph degree during chip-firing.

chip-firing dynamics, walls and boundaries, vertex death

Domains

graph theory, dynamical systems, combinatorics, generative art, visual pattern design, fractal aesthetics

Methods

grid experiments, boundary modification, time-slice updates

Media

undirected graphs, chips or grains of sand, computer-generated images
