The understanding of Boolean automata networks dynamics takes an important place in various domains of computer science such as computability, complexity and discrete dynamical systems. In this paper, we make a step further in this understanding by focusing on their cycles, whose necessity in networks is known as the brick of their complexity. We present new results that provide a characterisation of the transient and asymptotic dynamics, i.e. of the computational abilities, of asynchronous Boolean automata networks composed of two cycles that intersect at one automaton, the so-called double-cycles. To do so, we introduce an efficient formalism inspired by algorithms to define long sequences of updates, that allows a better description of their dynamics than previous works in this area. |
