Why Darwin would have loved evolutionary game theory.
Humans have marvelled at the fit of form and function, the way organisms' traits seem remarkably suited to their lifestyles and ecologies. While natural selection provides the scientific basis for the fit of form and function, Darwin found certain adaptations vexing or particularly intriguing: sex ratios, sexual selection and altruism. The logic behind these adaptations resides in frequency-dep...
متن کاملDarwin would have loved DNA: celebrating Darwin 200.
Analysis of DNA sequences now plays a key role in evolutionary biology research. If Darwin were to come back today, I think he would be absolutely delighted with molecular evolutionary genetics, for three reasons. First, it solved one of the greatest problems for his theory of evolution by natural selection. Second, it gives us a tool that can be used to investigate many of the questions he fou...

In the spirit of the symposium and the theme of the session of this presentation, 7 “Our solar system after Galileo, the grand vision,” I review briefly a relatively recently discovered 8 phenomenon in the solar system − existence of atmospheres on certain moons, including Io, one 9 of the four moons Galileo discovered four centuries ago. The origin of such atmospheres is 10 discussed, and comp...
متن کاملEvolutionary Game Theory: Why Equilibrium and Which Equilibrium
Two questions central to the foundations of game theory are (Samuelson 2002): (i) Why equilibrium? Should we expect Nash equilibrium play (players choosing best response strategies to the choices of others)? (ii) If so, which equilibrium? Which of the many Nash equilibria that arise in most games should we expect? To address the rst question the classical game theory approach employs assumptio...
متن کاملGalileo would have loved sports biomechanics, digitised ECG and his smartphone.
Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) is often referred to as the father of modern science. Initially a medical student, his obsession with measurement soon turned him to physics, mathematics and astronomy. Galileo was the first to accurately measure time by harnessing the principles of the pendulum and his improvements of the telescope led to massive advances in the fields of physics and astronomy. In p...
