Individual variation evades the Prisoner's Dilemma
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2002 Background The Prisoner's Dilemma (PD) is a widely used paradigm to study cooperation in evolutionary biology, as well as in fields as diverse as moral philosophy, sociology, economics and politics. Players are typically assumed to have fixed payoffs for

Bayesian analysis of deterministic and stochastic prisoner’s dilemma games
Judgment and Decision Making, 2009 This paper compares the behavior of individuals playing a classic two-person deterministic prisoner’s dilemma (PD) game with choice data obtained from repeated interdependent security prisoner’s dilemma games with varying probabilities of loss and the ...

Empirical Evidence of Upward Social Comparison in a Prisoner’s Dilemma Game
IEEE Access, 2020 A large body of work has offered compelling evidence of the influence of social context on individual decision-making, but the reasons why individuals tend to cooperate with others remain elusive.

A Note on Patents and Leniency
Gospodarka Narodowa. The Polish Journal of Economics, 2020 The purpose of this note is to investigate the relationship between patents and market collusion. Specifically, by using game theory tools, it is shown that patents can act as a leniency mechanism, i.e., they can enable firms to leave a cartel without ...

Games With Tolerant Players [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017 A notion of pi-tolerant equilibrium is defined that takes into account that players have some tolerance regarding payoffs in a game. This solution concept generalizes Nash and refines epsilon-Nash equilibrium in a natural way.

Generalized prisoner's dilemma
CoRR, 2014 Prisoner's dilemma has been heavily studied. In classical model, each player chooses to either "Cooperate" or "Defect". In this paper, we generalize the prisoner's dilemma with a new alternative which is neither defect or cooperation. The classical model is the special case under the condition that the third state is not taken into consideration.

Landscape and flux for quantifying global stability and dynamics of game theory. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Game theory has been widely applied to many research areas including economics, biology and social sciences. However, it is still challenging to quantify the global stability and global dynamics of the game theory.

The Repeated Prisoner’s Dilemma in a Network [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 Imperfect private monitoring in an infinitely repeated discounted Prisoner's Dilemma played on a communication network is studied. Players observe their direct neighbors' behavior only, but communicate strategically the repeated game's history throughout the network.

Translucent Players: Explaining Cooperative Behavior in Social Dilemmas [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 In the last few decades, numerous experiments have shown that humans do not always behave so as to maximize their material payoff. Cooperative behavior when non-cooperation is a dominant strategy (with respect to the material payoffs) is particularly ...
