A mathematical description of the inclusive fitness theory
Theoretical Population Biology, 2013Recent developments in the inclusive fitness theory have revealed that the direction of evolution can be analytically predicted in a wider class of models than previously thought, such as those models dealing with network structure. This paper aims to provide a mathematical description of the inclusive fitness theory. Specifically, we provide a general

For nearly 50 years, Inclusive Fitness Theory has provided researchers an avenue to understand altruistic interactions among individuals in a colony. It has recently come under fire by prominent academics suggesting it is unsatisfactory in describing altruism.

Inclusive Fitness and the Maximizing-Agent Analogy
The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2017ABSTRACTIn social evolution theory, biological individuals are often represented on the model of rational agents, that is, as if they were ‘seeking’ to maximize their own (expected) reproductive su...

Inclusive fitness models with two sexes
Theoretical Population Biology, 1988Much recent work has focused on the transition from G. R. Price's (1970, Nature 227, 520-521) formula for allele frequency change to an inclusive fitness condition for the selective advantage of a certain behaviour. In case there is any kind of asymmetry between the sexes, the analysis must keep track of the two sexes separately, and this leads to a ...

Inclusive Fitness from Multitype Branching Processes
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2010I use multitype branching processes to study genetic models for the evolution of social behaviour, i.e. behaviours that, when acted out, affect the success of the actor's neighbours. Here, I suppose an individual bearing a mutant copy of a gene influences the reproductive success of a neighbour by altering its own competitive ability.
