Why would natural selection favor the prevalence of cooperation within the groups of selfish
individuals? A fruitful framework to address this question is evolutionary game theory, the …

Prevalence of cooperation within groups of selfish individuals is puzzling in that it contradicts
with the basic premise of natural selection. Favoring players with higher fitness, the latter is …

Connectomics has focused primarily on the mapping of synaptic links in the brain; yet it is
well established that extrasynaptic volume transmission, especially via monoamines and …

To be the fittest is central to proliferation in evolutionary games. Individuals thus adopt the
strategies of better performing players in the hope of successful reproduction. In structured …

In realistic world individuals with high reputation are more likely to influence the collective
behaviors. Due to the cost and error of information dissemination, however, it is …

Social punishment is a mechanism by which cooperative individuals spend part of their
resources to penalize defectors. In this paper, we study the evolution of cooperation in 2 …

Spatial structure is known to have an impact on the evolution of cooperation, and so it has
been intensively studied during recent years. Previous work has shown the relevance of …

Spatial reciprocity is a well known tour de force of cooperation promotion. A thorough
understanding of the effects of different population densities is therefore crucial. Here we …

Reputation has been shown to provide an informal solution to the problem of cooperation in
human societies. After reviewing models that connect reputations and cooperation, we …

Spatial evolution game has traditionally assumed that players interact with direct neighbors
on a single network, which is isolated and not influenced by other systems. However, this is …
