Hawk-Dove is an interesting and important game of evolutionary biology. We consider the game from point of view of evolutionarily stable strategies (ESSs). In the classical version of the game only a mixed ESS exists.We find a quantum version of this game where both pure and mixed ESSs can exist.

We consider the stability of strict equilibrium under deterministic evolutionary game dynamics. We show that if the correlation between strategies’ growth rates and payoffs is positive and bounded away from zero in a neighborhood of a strict equilibrium, then this equilibrium is locally stable.

Learners sometimes have incoherent and fragmented intuitive prior knowledge that is (partly) "incompatible" with the to-be-learned contents. Such knowledge in pieces can cause conceptual disorientation and cognitive overload while learning. We hypothesized that a pre-training intervention providing a generalized schema as a structuring framework for such knowledge in pieces would support (re)or...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate the pursuit of achievement goals in medical students and to assess the relationship between achievement goals, learning strategy, and motivation. METHODS Two hundred seventy freshman and sophomore premedical students and sophomore medical school students participated in this study, which used the Achievement Goals Scale and the Self-Regulate...

The evolution of a consumer exploiting two resources is investigated. The strategy x under selection represents the fraction of time or energy an individual invests into extracting the first resource. In the model, a dimensionless parameter α quantifies how simultaneous consumption of both resources influences consumer growth; α < 0 corresponds to hemi-essential resources, 0 < α < 1 corresponds...

If two species exhibit different nonlinear responses to a single shared resource, and if each species modifies the resource dynamics such that this favors its competitor, they may stably coexist. This coexistence mechanism, known as relative nonlinearity of competition, is well understood theoretically, but less is known about its evolutionary properties and its prevalence in real communities. ...

Wireless mesh networks are a powerful and reliable solution to create and access wireless broadband services for Internet service providers, network construction, military applications and other end users are considered. These networks have features such as high reliability, low installation cost, wide coverage area and connect to the network automatically. The QoS routing service is a primary ...

With rapid economic growth, the ecological environment is subject to a huge test. The environment has become a bottleneck restricting the further development of the economy. Built on waste recycling, ecological industry chain is an important way to realize the sustainable development of economy and society. This paper establishes a three stage evolutionary game model of ecological industry chai...
