Dominance, Sharing, and Assessment in an Iterated Hawk--Dove Game
Cameron L. Hall, Mason A. Porter, Marian S. Dawkins
Animals use a wide variety of strategies to reduce or avoid aggression in conflicts over resources. These strategies range from sharing resources without outward signs of conflict…
Modeling the lowest-cost splitting of a herd of cows by optimizing a cost function
Kelum Gajamannage, Erik M. Bollt, Mason A. Porter +1
Animals live in groups to defend against predation and to obtain food. However, for some animals --- especially ones that spend long periods of time feeding --- there are costs if…
Formation of Dominance Relationships via Strategy Updating in an Asymmetric Hawk-Dove Game
Jasvir K. Grewal, Cameron L. Hall, Mason A. Porter +1
We develop a model to describe the development of dominance relations between social animals as they use past experiences to inform future interactions. Using the game-theoretic fr…
A Mathematical Model for the Dynamics and Synchronization of Cows
Jie Sun, Erik M. Bollt, Mason A. Porter +1
We formulate a mathematical model for daily activities of a cow (eating, lying down, and standing) in terms of a piecewise affine dynamical system. We analyze the properties of thi…
