We introduce a framework within evolutionary game theory for studying the distinction between objective and subjective rationality and apply it to the evolution of cooperation on 3-regular random graphs. In our simulations, agents evolve misrepresentations of objective reality that help them cooperate and maintain higher social welfare in the Prisoner’s dilemma. These agents act rationally on t...

We develop a perturbative QCD factorization theorem which is compatible with effective field theory. The factorization involves three scales: an infrared cutoff of order ΛQCD, a hard scale of order the B meson mass, and an ultraviolet cutoff of order the W boson mass. Our approach is renormalization group invariant and moderates the scale-dependence problem in effective field theory. Applying t...

In order for robots to assist and interact with humans, they must be socially intelligent. Social intelligence is the ability to communicate and understand meaning through social interaction. Artificial intelligence can be broadly described, as an effort to describe and simulate the property of human intelligence inside of a computational model. In most cases, this simulation happens in a vacuu...

The problem I would like to address focus on the role of communication within scientific communities. More specifically I intend to examine at what extent some parallelism can be observed between the construction of scientific representations and their subsequent transformation in social representations. I will try to examine the continuity as well as the discontinuity between science and commo...

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations...
