Dispersal costs can be classified into energetic, time, risk and opportunity costs and may be
levied directly or deferred during departure, transfer and settlement. They may equally be …

The Ideal Free Distribution (IFD), introduced by Fretwell and Lucas in [Fretwell, DS, Lucas,
HL, 1970. On territorial behavior and other factors influencing habitat distribution in birds …

The replicator equation is the first and most important game dynamics studied in connection
with evolutionary game theory. It was originally developed for symmetric games with finitely …

Covering the major topics of evolutionary game theory, Game-Theoretical Models in Biology,
Second Edition presents both abstract and practical mathematical models of real biological …

Despite being widely used, habitat selection models are rarely reliable and informative
when applied across different ecosystems or over time. One possible explanation is that …

Power distribution networks that include distributed generation need new control strategies
based on distributed and hierarchical structures. For these systems, a replicator dynamics …

A general question in the study of the evolution of dispersal is what kind of dispersal
strategies can convey competitive advantages and thus will evolve. We consider a two …

Evolutionary Community Ecology develops a unified framework for understanding the
structure of ecological communities and the dynamics of natural selection that shape the …

The role of habitat choice behavior in the dynamics of predator-prey systems is explored
using simple mathematical models. The models assume a three-species food chain in which …

How organisms gather and utilize information about their landscapes is central to
understanding land-use patterns and population distributions. When such information …
