As an extension of the concept of an evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) evolutionarily
stable sets are introduced, ie sets of equilibrium strategies (EQS) which have much of the …

Explanations of the observed behaviors of individuals and species often rely on evolutionary
stable strategies (ESSs). Essentially, analysis of ESSs requires a description of the …

Question: How are the three main stability concepts from evolutionary game theory–
evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS), convergence stability, and neighbourhood invader …

It has been shown that the ESS Maximum Principle, used to find evolutionarily stable
strategies, is applicable to a large class of population dynamic models. These include both …

Evolutionary stable strategies (ESSs) are often used to explain the behaviors of individuals
and species. The analysis of ESSs determines which, if any, combinations of behaviors …

With the rediscovery of Mendel's Laws at the turn of the century (100), the study of
evolutionary processes blossomed. Since then, the discipline of population genetics has …

In a population that is fixed at an evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS), no mutant strategy can
invade and spread. If, however, the strategy set is continuous, one can ask which mutations …

This paper studies the correspondence between Nash equilibrium and evolutionary stability
in large-and finite-population “playing the field” models. Whenever the fitness function is …

We tackle three components of evolutionary modelling: payoffs, dynamical systems and
equilibrium concepts. Firstly, we merely require that fitness functions are continuous …

Characteristics of evolutionarily stable strategies, or ESS's, are investigated for a general
class of evolutionary models. Both differential equation and difference equation models are …
