Synergy and Group Size in Microbial Cooperation [PDF]
Microbes produce many molecules that are important for their growth and development, and the exploitation of these secretions by nonproducers has recently become an important paradigm in microbial social evolution. Although the production of these public-goods molecules has been studied intensely, little is known of how the benefits accrued and the ...

On the Size and Structure of Group Cooperation [PDF]
This paper examines characteristics of cooperative behavior in a repeated, n-person, continuous action generalization of a Prisoner' Dilemma game. When time preferences are heterogeneous and bounded away from one, how "much" cooperation can be achieved by an ongoing group? How does group cooperation vary with the group' size and structure?
