Evolutionary Dynamics Within and Among Competing Groups
We apply this theory to analyze how mechanisms known to promote cooperation within a single group -- including assortment, reciprocity, and population structure -- alter evolutionary outcomes in the presence of competition among groups.
Sharp thresholds limit the benefit of defector avoidance in cooperation on networks
Consider a cooperation game on a spatial network of habitat patches, where players can relocate between patches if they judge the local conditions to be unfavorable.
A PDE Model for Protocell Evolution and the Origin of Chromosomes via Multilevel Selection
We find that the gene-level advantage of fast replicators casts a long shadow on the multilevel dynamics of protocell evolution: no level of between-protocell competition can produce coexistence of the fast and slow replicators when the two genes are equally needed for protocell-level reproduction.
Optimal, near-optimal, and robust epidemic control
Here we derive the theoretically optimal strategy for using a time-limited intervention to reduce the peak prevalence of a novel disease in the classic Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered epidemic model.
Probabilistic Foundations of Spatial Mean-field Models in Ecology and Applications
Deterministic models of vegetation often summarize, at a macroscopic scale, a multitude of intrinsically random events occurring at a microscopic scale.
