Competition-cooperation relationship networks characterize the competition and cooperation between proteins

By analyzing protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, one can find that a protein may have multiple binding partners. However, it is difficult to determine whether the interactions with these partners occur simultaneously from binary PPIs alone. Here, we construct the yeast and human competition-cooperation relationship networks (CCRNs) based on protein structural interactomes to clearly exh...

Cooperation and between-group competition

Introducing competition between groups may induce cooperation to emerge in defection games despite considerable cost of cooperation. If the groups can confine themselves to a cooperative sector, either by providing incentives to raise the cooperation level in one group, or by providing disincentives so that the cooperation level in the other group gets lowered to match that of the first, maximu...

Cooperation and competition between relatives.

Individuals are predicted to behave more altruistically and less competitively toward their relatives, because they share a relatively high proportion of their genes (e.g., one-half for siblings and one-eighth for cousins). Consequently, by helping a relative reproduce, an individual passes its genes to the next generation, increasing their Darwinian fitness. This idea, termed kin selection, ha...

Cooperation Competition Running head: A THEORY OF COOPERATION - COMPETITION A Theory of Cooperation - Competition and Beyond

This chapter is concerned with my interrelated theoretical work in the areas of cooperation competition, conflict resolution, social justice, and social relations. The theory of cooperation competition is a component of the other theories. Thus, the theory of conflict resolution is based on this theory and my Crude Law of Social Relations. My work in social justice is also based on this theory,...
