Reputation effects drive the joint evolution of cooperation and social rewarding

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Rewards can motivate people to cooperate, but the evolution of rewarding behavior is itself poorly understood. Here, a game-theoretic analysis shows that reputation effects facilitate the simultaneous evolution of cooperation and social rewarding ...

Indirect Reciprocity with Optional Interactions and Private Information

open access: yesGames, 2015
We consider indirect reciprocity with optional interactions and private information. A game is offered between two players and accepted unless it is known that the other person is a defector.

Evolutionary Dynamics of Biological Games [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2004
Darwinian dynamics based on mutation and selection form the core of mathematical models for adaptation and coevolution of biological populations. The evolutionary outcome is often not a fitness-maximizing equilibrium but can include oscillations and chaos.

Quantifying the evolutionary dynamics of language [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2007
Human language is based on grammatical rules. Cultural evolution allows these rules to change over time. Rules compete with each other: as new rules rise to prominence, old ones die away. To quantify the dynamics of language evolution, we studied the regularization of English verbs over the past 1,200 years.

Evolutionary dynamics of knowledge

open access: yesComplexity, 2006
AbstractThis study discusses the evolutionary nature of knowledge acquisition at micro and macro levels, and in particular when the process involves an artificial agent's interpretative devices. In order to accomplish this, we propose using an individual learning model (or inner‐world reconstruction model) that in our view overcomes neoclassic ...

Evolution of the muscular system in tetrapod limbs

open access: yesZoological Letters, 2018
While skeletal evolution has been extensively studied, the evolution of limb muscles and brachial plexus has received less attention. In this review, we focus on the tempo and mode of evolution of forelimb muscles in the vertebrate history, and on the ...

Exploration dynamics in evolutionary games [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
Evolutionary game theory describes systems where individual success is based on the interaction with others. We consider a system in which players unconditionally imitate more successful strategies but sometimes also explore the available strategies at random.

Unifying evolutionary and network dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2007
Many important real-world networks manifest "small-world" properties such as scale-free degree distributions, small diameters, and clustering. The most common model of growth for these networks is "preferential attachment", where nodes acquire new links with probability proportional to the number of links they already have.

The evolution of non-reproductive workers in insect colonies with haplodiploid genetics

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Eusociality is a distinct form of biological organization. A key characteristic of advanced eusociality is the presence of non-reproductive workers. Why evolution should produce organisms that sacrifice their own reproductive potential in order to aid ...
