Insights into the Structured Coordination Game with Neutral Options through Simulation
John S. McAlister, Nina H. Fefferman
Coordination games have been of interest to game theorists, economists, and ecologists for many years to study such problems as the emergence of local conventions and the evolution…
An Interdisciplinary Perspective of the Built-Environment Microbiome
John S. McAlister, Michael J. Blum, Yana Bromberg +8
The built environment provides an excellent setting for interdisciplinary research on the dynamics of microbial communities. The system is simplified compared to many natural setti…
The Case for Controls: Identifying outbreak risk factors through case-control comparisons
Nina H. Fefferman, Michael J. Blum, Lydia Bourouiba +7
Investigations of infectious disease outbreaks often focus on identifying place- and context-dependent factors responsible for emergence and spread, resulting in phenomenological n…
Diversity in Valuing Social Contact and Risk Tolerance Lead to the Emergence of Homophily in Populations Facing Infectious Threats
Matthew J. Young, Matthew J. Silk, Alex J. Pritchard +1
How self-organization leads to the emergence of structure in social populations remains a fascinating and open question in the study of complex systems. One frequently observed str…
Flow similarity, stochastic branching, and quarter power scaling in plants
Charles A. Price, Paul Drake, Erik J. Veneklaas +1
The origin of allometric scaling patterns that are multiples of 1/4 has long fascinated biologists. While not universal, scaling relationships with exponents that are close to mult…
Spatial population expansion promotes the evolution of cooperation in an experimental Prisoner's Dilemma
J. David Van Dyken, Melanie J. I. Muller, Keenan M. L. Mack +1
Cooperation is ubiquitous in nature, but explaining its existence remains a central interdisciplinary challenge. Cooperation is most difficult to explain in the Prisoner's Dilemma…
Dynamics of alliance formation and the egalitarian revolution
Sergey Gavrilets, Edgar A. Duenez-Guzman, Michael D. Vose
Arguably the most influential force in human history is the formation of social coalitions and alliances (i.e., long-lasting coalitions) and their impact on individual power. In mo…
