Abstract

The evolution of the Langton's ant on a 2D lattice is studied from the "ant's framework". The aim of this article is twofold. Firstly, to see if one can explain the emergent behaviour of the ant as an analogous sytem of a particle crossing an horizon. Secondly, pointing toward some directions for an explanation, the evolution of the density of one color is studied and commented.
