T1  - Increasing coupling for probabilistic cellular automata
N2  - We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of an increasing coupling of N (N greater as 2) synchronous dynamics on S^Zd (PCA). Increasing means the coupling preserves stochastic ordering. We first present our main construction theorem in the case where S is totally ordered; applications to attractive PCAs are given. When S is only partially ordered, we show on two examples that a coupling of more than two synchronous dynamics may not exist. We also prove an extension of our main result for a particular class of partially ordered spaces.
