How costly punishment, diversity, and density of connectivity influence cooperation in a biological network

Ivan C. Ezeigbo

It has been an old unsolved puzzle to evolutionary theorists on which mechanisms would increase large-scale cooperation in human societies. Thus, how such mechanisms operate in a b…

Integrated information increases with fitness in the evolution of animats

Jeffrey Edlund, Nicolas Chaumont, Arend Hintze +3

One of the hallmarks of biological organisms is their ability to integrate disparate information sources to optimize their behavior in complex environments. How this capability can…

Evolution and stability of altruist strategies in microbial games

Christoph Adami, Jory Schossau, Arend Hintze

When microbes compete for limited resources, they often engage in chemical warfare using bacterial toxins. This competition can be understood in terms of evolutionary game theory (…

Critical properties of complex fitness landscapes

Bjørn Østman, Arend Hintze, Christoph Adami

Evolutionary adaptation is the process that increases the fit of a population to the fitness landscape it inhabits. As a consequence, evolutionary dynamics is shaped, constrained,…

Darwinian Evolution of Cooperation via Punishment in the "Public Goods" Game

Arend Hintze, Christoph Adami

The evolution of cooperation has been a perennial problem for evolutionary biology because cooperation is undermined by selfish cheaters (or "free riders") that profit from coopera…

Critical dynamics in the evolution of stochastic strategies for the iterated Prisoner's Dilemma

Dimitris Iliopoulos, Arend Hintze, Christoph Adami

The observed cooperation on the level of genes, cells, tissues, and individuals has been the object of intense study by evolutionary biologists, mainly because cooperation often fl…
