Density of periodic points, invariant measures and almost equicontinuous points of cellular automata

Revisiting the notion of m-almost equicontinuous cellular automata introduced by R. Gilman, we show that the sequence of image measures of a shift ergodic measure m by iterations of a m-almost equicontinuous automata F, converges in Cesaro mean to an invariant measure mc. If the initial measure m is a Bernouilli measure, we prove that the Cesaro mean limit measure mc is shift mixing. Therefore we also show that for any shift ergodic and F-invariant measure m, the existence of m-almost equicontinuous points implies that the set of periodic points is dense in the topological support S(m) of the invariant measure m. Finally we give a non trivial example of a couple (m-equicontinuous cellular automata F, shift ergodic and F-invariant measure m) which has no equicontinuous point in S(m).
