The effect of network topology on optimal exploration strategies and the evolution of cooperation in a mobile population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We model a mobile population interacting over an underlying spatial structure using a Markov movement model. Interactions take the form of public goods games, and can feature an arbitrary group size.

5 OPERA SINGERS AND INFORMATION THEORY

open access: yes, 2020
The players represent a group of opera singers. Among them are two stars. These stars are either friends or enemies. Only the host knows who the stars are and the nature of their relation­ship (friends or enemies). So in this game, not even the two stars

Blackwell-Optimal Strategies in Priority Mean-Payoff Games [PDF]

open access: yesEPTCS 25, 2010, pp. 7-21, 2010
We examine perfect information stochastic mean-payoff games - a class of games containing as special sub-classes the usual mean-payoff games and parity games. We show that deterministic memoryless strategies that are optimal for discounted games with state-dependent discount factors close to 1 are optimal for priority mean-payoff games establishing a ...

How Speculative Fiction Can Teach about Gender and Power in International Politics: A Pedagogical Overview

open access: yesInternational Studies Perspectives, 2020
Fictional universes can be treated as discrete units of analysis in which we see the operation of international relations theory. This article discusses insights gleaned from a course created at Sonoma State University called “Gender and Geopolitics in

An application of the Ehrenfeucht-Fraisse game in formal language theory

open access: yes, 1984
A version of the Ehrenfreucht-Fraisse game is used to obtain a new proof of a hierarchy result in formal language theory: It is shown that the concatenation hierarchy ("dot-depth hierarchy") of star-free languages is strict.

A cognitive hierarchy model of learning in networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper proposes a method for estimating a hierarchical model of bounded rationality in games of learning in networks. A cognitive hierarchy comprises a set of cognitive types whose behavior ranges from random to substantively rational.

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

“Searching for order at all levels”. Antonio Lima-de-Faria (July 4, 1921 – December 27, 2023)

open access: yesCaryologia
Professor Antonio Lima-de-Faria was our friend and, in a sense, a teacher. Despite our different fields of study, this master of scientific thought has deeply influenced both of us. Dr.

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Captured-Reversible Moves and Star Decomposition Domination in Hex

open access: yesIntegers, 2013
By applying the combinatorial game theory notions of dominated move and reversible move, and by exploiting graph-theoretic properties of Hex board decompositions, we identify two new types of inferior Hex move.
