Institution Formation in Public Goods Games [PDF]
American Economic Review, 2006 Sanctioning institutions are of utmost importance for overcoming free-riding tendencies and enforcing outcomes that maximize group welfare in social dilemma situations. We investigate, theoretically and experimentally, the endogenous formation of institutions in public goods provision.

Scientific Reports, 2021 Despite intensive studies on the evolution of cooperation in spatial public goods games, there have been few investigations into locality effects in interaction games, adaptation, and punishment.

Aspiration-Based Learning in k-Hop Best-Shot Binary Networked Public Goods Games
Mathematics, 2023 In public goods games, it is common for agents to learn strategies from those who possess the highest utility. However, in reality, because of the lack of information, strategies and utilities from others cannot be obtained or predicted during learning ...

Learning dynamics in public goods games [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2011 We extend recent analyses of stochastic effects in game dynamical learning to cases of multiplayer games and to games defined on networked structures. By means of an expansion in the noise strength we consider the weak-noise limit and present an analytical computation of spectral properties of fluctuations in multiplayer public goods games.

Cooperative success in epithelial public goods games [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2021 Cancer cells obtain mutations which rely on the production of diffusible growth factors to confer a fitness benefit. These mutations can be considered cooperative, and studied as public goods games within the framework of evolutionary game theory. The population structure, benefit function and update rule all influence the evolutionary success of ...

Cooperation dynamics in public goods games with evolving cognitive bias
Management System Engineering, 2023 It has been proved that cognitive biases widely exist in various social realities and lead to unprecedented consequences by affecting individual judgment and decision-making processes in distinct ways.

The durability of public goods changes the dynamics and nature of social dilemmas. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 An implicit assumption underpins basic models of the evolution of cooperation, mutualism and altruism: The benefits (or pay-offs) of cooperation and defection are defined by the current frequency or distribution of cooperators.

Journal of Public Economic Theory, 2007 AbstractWe exploit the aggregative structure of the public good model to provide a simple analysis of the voluntary contribution game. In contrast to the best response function approach, ours avoids the proliferation of dimensions as the number of players is increased, and can readily analyze games involving many heterogeneous players.

How Do Public Goods Providers Play Public Goods Games? [PDF]
Legislative Studies Quarterly, 2015 We study how policymakers play public goods games, and how their behavior compares to the typical subjects we study, by conducting parallel experiments on college undergraduates and American state legislators. We find that the legislators play public goods games more cooperatively and more consistently than the undergraduates. Legislators are also less
