Abstract

In this paper, we investigate some combinatorial aspects ofC-surjective local maps, i.e., local maps inducing surjective global maps,C F -surjective local maps, i.e., local maps inducing surjective restrictions of global maps on the setC F of finite configurations, andC-injective local maps, i.e., local maps inducing injective local maps, of one-dimensional tessellation automata.

We introduce a pair of right and left bundle-graphs and a pair of right and leftλ-bundle-graphs for everyC-surjective local map. We give characterizations forC F -surjectivity,C-injectivity and some other properties ofC-surjective local maps in relation to these bundle-graphs. We also establish some properties of the inverse of aC-injective local map.
