Learning to cooperate in a changing world: How caring about the future promotes cooperation across scales

Yuxin Geng, Xingru Chen, Xin Wang +4

In social dilemmas, individuals need to forgo short-term temptations to achieve synergistic collective outcomes through cooperation. Previous work has examined mechanisms through w…

Control of Harmful Information Spreading on Adaptive Higher-Order Networks via Group Dissolution

Longzhao Liu, Zhihao Han, Xingru Chen +4

Curbing harmful information contagion remains a critical challenge, motivating platform-level interventions such as group dissolution to sever transmission chains. However, in prac…

Immunization on Temporal Higher-Order Networks

Zhihao Han, Longzhao Liu, Xin Wang +3

Network immunization is a powerful tool for controlling contagion processes ranging from infectious diseases to misinformation diffusion. While prior works have focused on pairwise…

Identifying vulnerable nodes for hypergraph dismantling via higher-order competition dynamics

Yajing Hao, Longzhao Liu, Xin Wang +3

Network dismantling aims to identify a node removal sequence that can rapidly destroy network connectivity, which is an important problem for understanding the structural fragility…

Emergent dilemma and periodic oscillation in the nonlinear interplay between epidemic and behavior

Longzhao Liu, Hongwei Zheng, Yajing Hao +3

Human behaviors, particularly non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), are dynamically coupled with epidemic spreading. While prior studies mainly assume a linear interplay, real-w…

Stereotyping by strategy standing diversifies cooperation patterns in indirect reciprocity

Ming Wei, Xin Wang, Wenqiang Zhu +4

Indirect reciprocity explains how cooperation evolves through social reputations. People observe others, assign reputations, and condition their future actions on these assignments…

Indirect reciprocity beyond pairwise interactions

Ming Wei, Xin Wang, Junyu Lu +5

Cooperation in groups underpins collective responses to challenges from climate governance to public goods provision, yet how moral evaluation sustains it remains poorly understood…

Reinforcement learning with reputation-based adaptive exploration promotes cooperation

An Li, Wenqiang Zhu, Chaoqian Wang +5

Reinforcement learning provides a framework for studying how individuals adjust their behavior through repeated interaction and feedback in social dilemmas. In Q-learning, explorat…

Indirect Reciprocity with Environmental Feedback

Yishen Jiang, Xin Wang, Ming Wei +4

Indirect reciprocity maintains cooperation in stranger societies by mapping individual behaviors onto reputation signals via social norms. Existing theoretical frameworks assume st…
