Where strategic and evolutionary stability depart - a study of minimal diversity games [PDF]
A minimal diversity game is an n player strategic form game in which each player has m pure strategies at his disposal. The payoff to each player is always 1, unless all players select the same pure strategy, in which case all players receive zero payoff.

BMC Bioinformatics, 2013 Background Even a single amino acid substitution in a protein sequence may result in significant changes in protein stability, structure, and therefore in protein function as well.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

The Evolutionary Stability of Optimism, Pessimism and Complete Ignorance [PDF]
, 2005 We provide an evolutionary foundation to evidence that in some situations humans maintain optimistic or pessimistic attitudes towards uncertainty and are ignorant to relevant aspects of the environment.

Lyapunov stability in an evolutionary game theory model of the labour market
EconomiA, 2014 In this paper the existence and stability of equilibriums in an evolutionary game theory model of the labour market is studied by using the Lyapunov method. The model displays multiple equilibriums and it is shown that the Nash equilibriums of the static

Exponential stability for linear evolutionary equations [PDF]
Asymptotic Analysis, 2013 We give an approach to exponential stability within the framework of evolutionary equations due to Picard [Math. Methods Appl. Sci. 32(14) (2009), 1768–1803]. We derive sufficient conditions for exponential stability in terms of the material law operator which is defined via an analytic and bounded operator-valued function and give an estimate for the ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Evolutionary Stability in Common Pool Resources. [PDF]
The Tragedy of the Commons refers to the dissipation of a common- pool ressource when any appropriator has free access to it. Under the behavior of absolute payoff maximisation, the common-pool resource game leads to a Nash equilibrium in which the ...

Ecology and EvolutionThe adult sex ratio (ASR) is a key demographic parameter that shapes sexual selection and social interactions. While ASR variation drives profound behavioral plasticity within a generation, it remains unclear whether parental experience of skewed ASRs ...
