Abstract
We discuss bipermutive cellular automata from a combinatorial and topological perspective. We prove a type of topological randomizing property for bipermutive CA, show that the commutator of a bipermutive CA is always small and that bipermutive affine CA have only ane CA in their commutator. We show the last result also in the multidimensional case, proving a conjecture of [Moore-Boykett, 97].
