چکیده

We investigate the dynamics of three-strategy (rock–paper–scissors) replicator equations in which the fitness of each strategy is a function of the population frequencies delayed by a time interval T . Taking T as a bifurcation parameter, we demonstrate the existence of (non-degenerate) Hopf bifurcations in these systems and present an analysis of the resulting limit cycles using Lindstedt’s method.

Hopf Bifurcations in Two-Strategy Delayed Replicator Dynamics

We investigate the dynamics of two-strategy replicator equations in which the fitness of each strategy is a function of the population frequencies delayed by a time interval T . We analyze two models: in the first, all terms in the fitness are delayed, while in the second, only oppositestrategy terms are delayed. We compare the two models via a linear homotopy. Taking the delay T as a bifurcati...

Nonlinear dynamics of the rock-paper-scissors game with mutations.

We analyze the replicator-mutator equations for the rock-paper-scissors game. Various graph-theoretic patterns of mutation are considered, ranging from a single unidirectional mutation pathway between two of the species, to global bidirectional mutation among all the species. Our main result is that the coexistence state, in which all three species exist in equilibrium, can be destabilized by a...

Transition matrix model for evolutionary game dynamics.

We study an evolutionary game model based on a transition matrix approach, in which the total change in the proportion of a population playing a given strategy is summed directly over contributions from all other strategies. This general approach combines aspects of the traditional replicator model, such as preserving unpopulated strategies, with mutation-type dynamics, which allow for nonzero ...

Hopf Bifurcations in Replicator Dynamics with Distributed Delays

In this paper, we study the existence and the property of the Hopf bifurcation in the two-strategy replicator dynamics with distributed delays. In evolutionary games, we assume that a strategy would take an uncertain time delay to have a consequence on the fitness (or utility) of the players. As the mean delay increases, a change in the stability of the equilibrium (Hopf bifurcation) may occur ...

Hopf Bifurcations and Limit Cycles in Evolutionary Network Dynamics

The replicator-mutator equations from evolutionary dynamics serve as a model for the evolution of language, behavioral dynamics in social networks, and decision-making dynamics in networked multi-agent systems. Analysis of the stable equilibria of these dynamics has been a focus in the literature, where symmetry in fitness functions is typically assumed. We explore asymmetry in fitness and show...
