چکیده

The effects of an unconditional move rule in the spatial Prisoner's Dilemma, Snowdrift and Stag Hunt games are studied. Spatial structure by itself is known to modify the outcome of many games when compared with a randomly mixed population, sometimes promoting, sometimes inhibiting cooperation. Here we show that random dilution and mobility may suppress the inhibiting factors of the spatial structure in the Snowdrift game, while enhancing the already larger cooperation found in the Prisoner's dilemma and Stag Hunt games.

Collective Chasing Behavior between Cooperators and Defectors in the Spatial Prisoner’s Dilemma

Cooperation is one of the essential factors for all biological organisms in major evolutionary transitions. Recent studies have investigated the effect of migration for the evolution of cooperation. However, little is known about whether and how an individuals' cooperativeness coevolves with mobility. One possibility is that mobility enhances cooperation by enabling cooperators to escape from d...

Cooperative Regions For Coded Cooperation Over Time-Varying Fading Channels

The performance analysis of coded cooperation has been mainly focused on two extreme cases of channel variability, i.e. the block-fading (BF) and the fast-fading (FF) model. In more practical propagation environments the fading correlation across time depends on the level of user mobility. This paper analyzes the effects of time-selective fading on the performance of coded cooperation by provid...

Evolution of Cooperation on Spatially Embedded Networks

In this work we study the behavior of classical two-person, two-strategies evolutionary games on networks embedded in a Euclidean two-dimensional space with different kinds of degree distributions and topologies going from regular to random and to scale-free ones. Using several imitative microscopic dynamics, we study the evolution of global cooperation on the above network classes and find tha...

Mobility, fitness collection, and the breakdown of cooperation.

The spatial arrangement of individuals is thought to overcome the dilemma of cooperation: When cooperators engage in clusters, they might share the benefit of cooperation while being more protected against noncooperating individuals, who benefit from cooperation but save the cost of cooperation. This is paradigmatically shown by the spatial prisoner's dilemma model. Here, we study this model in...

Coupled dynamics of mobility and pattern formation in optional public goods games

In a static environment, optional participation and a local agglomeration of cooperators are found to be beneficial for the occurrence and maintenance of cooperation. In the optional public goods game, the rock-scissors-paper cycles of different strategies yield oscillatory cooperation but not stable cooperation. In this paper, by incorporating population density and individual mobility into th...
