Social goods dilemmas in heterogeneous societies
Alex McAvoy, Benjamin Allen, Martin A. Nowak
Prosocial behaviors are encountered in the donation game, the prisoner's dilemma, relaxed social dilemmas, and public goods games. Many studies assume that the population structure…
Fixation probabilities in evolutionary dynamics under weak selection
Alex McAvoy, Benjamin Allen
In evolutionary dynamics, a key measure of a mutant trait's success is the probability that it takes over the population given some initial mutant-appearance distribution. This "fi…
Transient amplifiers of selection and reducers of fixation for death-Birth updating on graphs
Benjamin Allen, Christine Sample, Robert Jencks +7
The spatial structure of an evolving population affects which mutations become fixed. Some structures amplify selection, increasing the likelihood that beneficial mutations become…
Evolutionary Games on Isothermal Graphs
Benjamin Allen, Gabor Lippner, Martin A. Nowak
Population structure affects the outcome of natural selection. Static population structures can be described by graphs, where individuals occupy the nodes, and interactions occur a…
