Social welfare optimisation under institutional reward and punishment

Van An Nguyen, Vuong Khang Huynh, Huu Loi Bui +8

Institutional incentives are widely used to promote cooperation among autonomous, self-regarding agents, from human societies to multi-agent and AI systems. Existing work typically…

Cost of institutional incentives for promoting cooperation in games and collective risk games

M. H. Duong, C. M. Durbac, T. A. Han

Prosocial behaviours have been extensively studied across multiple disciplines. Cooperation, requiring a personal cost for collective benefits, is widespread in nature and human so…

Replicator-mutator dynamics for public goods games with institutional incentives

Nataliya A. Balabanova, Manh Hong Duong, The Anh Han

Understanding the emergence and stability of cooperation in public goods games is important due to its applications in fields such as biology, economics, and social science. Howeve…

Evolutionary dynamics with random payoff matrices

Manh Hong Duong, The Anh Han

Uncertainty, characterised by randomness and stochasticity, is ubiquitous in applications of evolutionary game theory across various fields, including biology, economics and social…

Evolutionary mechanisms that promote cooperation may not promote social welfare

The Anh Han, Manh Hong Duong, Matjaz Perc

Understanding the emergence of prosocial behaviours among self-interested individuals is an important problem in many scientific disciplines. Various mechanisms have been proposed…

Cost optimisation of individual-based institutional reward incentives for promoting cooperation in finite populations

M. H. Duong, C. M. Durbac, T. A. Han

In this paper, we study the problem of cost optimisation of individual-based institutional incentives (reward, punishment, and hybrid) for guaranteeing a certain minimal level of c…

On the number of equilibria of the replicator-mutator dynamics for noisy social dilemmas

L. Chen, C. Deng, M. H. Duong +1

In this paper, we consider the replicator-mutator dynamics for pairwise social dilemmas where the payoff entries are random variables. The randomness is incorporated to take into a…

On the expected number of equilibria in a multi-player multi-strategy evolutionary game

Manh Hong Duong, The Anh Han

In this paper, we analyze the mean number of internal equilibria in a general -player -strategy evolutionary game where the agents' payoffs are normally distributed.…
