It intuitively captures the asymptotic dynamics of almost all initial conditions. It was defined by Milnor and studied in the context of cellular automata, whose generic limit sets are subshifts, by Djenaoui and Guillon. In this article we study the structural and computational restrictions that apply to generic limit sets of cellular automata. As our main result, we show that the language of a generic limit set can be at most $$\varSigma ^0_3$$-hard, and lower in various special cases. We also prove a structural restriction on generic limit sets with a global period. %G English %Z TC 1 %Z WG 1.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03659465/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03659465/file/496967_1_En_10_Chapter.pdf %L hal-03659465 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-03659465 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC1 %~ IFIP-WG1-5 %~ IFIP-AUTOMATA %~ IFIP-LNCS-12286
