Collective action through adaptive awareness

Afolabi Ariwayo, Bryce Morsky, Malbor Asllani

Collective actions emerge through the interplay between social influence and awareness. We introduce a nonlinear opinion-dynamics framework on networks in which social influence, s…

Synchronized disease and behavioural dynamics in weakly coupled populations

Xinxuan Wang, Youngmin Park, Bryce Morsky

The spread of infectious disease is strongly influenced by social dynamics. In addition to infection risk, individuals vaccination decisions depend on prevailing social behavior: h…

Strategies for tumor elimination and control under immune evasion and chemotherapy resistance

Nazanin Mokari, Bryce Morsky

The evolutionary and ecological dynamics of tumors under immune responses and therapeutic interventions pose major challenges to long-term treatment success. Although treatment may…

Dynamics of voting strategies and public good funding

Jonathan Engle, Bryce Morsky

We model an electorate voting on the funding of a public good in a two-party system in an evolutionary game theory framework. Voters adopt one of four strategies: Consensus-makers,…

Phage-antibiotic therapy under density dependent bacterial defenses

Rohan Shirur, Bryce Morsky

Phage therapy is an alternative treatment method for bacterial infections. It has shown particular promise in reducing bacterial load while preventing antibiotic resistance. Here,…

The gig economy during an epidemic: coupling disease transmission with labour market dynamics

Bryce Morsky, Tyler Meadows, Felicia Magpantay +1

The gig economy has grown significantly in recent years, driven by the emergence of various facilitating platforms. Triggering substantial shifts to labour markets across the world…

How urban scaling and resource distribution shape social welfare and migration dynamics

Bryce Morsky

Many outputs of cities scale in universal ways, including infrastructure, crime, and economic activity. Through a mathematical model, this study investigates the interplay between…

The dynamics of strategic voting: pathways to consensus and gridlock

Jonathan Engle, Bryce Morsky

The outcomes of democratic elections rest on individuals' decision-making that is driven by their varying preferences and beliefs. Individuals may prefer consensus to gridlock, or…

Worst-case control via linear programming: applications to truncation selection and partially malicious players

Zhuoer Zhang, Bryce Morsky

The connection between game theory, convex optimization, and geometry is deep. There are many applications of linear programming methods and polyhedral representation conversion me…

Convergence of reputations under indirect reciprocity

Bryce Morsky, Joshua B. Plotkin, Erol Akçay

Previous research has shown how indirect reciprocity can promote cooperation through evolutionary game theoretic models. Most work in this field assumes a separation of time-scales…

Social and individual learning in the Minority Game

Bryce Morsky, Fuwei Zhuang, Zuojun Zhou

We study the roles of social and individual learning on outcomes of the Minority Game model of a financial market. Social learning occurs via agents adopting the strategies of thei…

Suppressing evolution through environmental switching

Bryce Morsky, Dervis Can Vural

Ecology and evolution under changing environments are important in many subfields of biology with implications for medicine. Here, we explore an example: the consequences of fluctu…

Cheater-altruist synergy in immunopathogenic ecological public goods games

Bryce Morsky, Dervis Can Vural

Much research has focused on the deleterious effects of free-riding in public goods games, and a variety of mechanisms that suppresses cheating behaviour. Here we argue that under…

Truncation selection and diffusion on lattices

Bryce Morsky, Chris T. Bauch

Evolutionary games on graphs have been extensively studied. A variety of graph structures, graph dynamics, and behaviours of replicators have been explored. These models have prima…
