[Game Theory Reading] Reading: (Tomorrow, 13 Aug, 1:15pm, Dr Markus Brede) Evolutionary Game Theory

[Dengji Zhao]

Dear all,

In tomorrow's game theory reading group, Dr Markus Brede
<http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/people/mb8> from AIC will give us a very
interesting talk about the evolution of cooperation in structured
populations. This talk will not only advance our knowledge about
evolutionary game theory following Long's tutorial in April, but also
covers a very rich introduction/discussion of Markus's recent work in this
interesting field.

Time/Venue: 13 August, 1:15pm - 2:00pm / B32 3073

Title:
The evolution of cooperation in structured populations

Abstract:
Starting with a brief introduction to evolutionary game theory, I will
discuss some ideas that can explain how cooperative behaviour can evolve
and persist in populations of interacting agents. A focus of the overview
will be on structured populations and so-called "network reciprocity" and I
will present some of my own work that highlights the importance of various
types of heterogeneity for the evolution of cooperation. I'll conclude by
discussing some recent directions and advances in the field.
