This paper studies the structural robustness of evolutionary models of cooperation, i.e. their sensitivity to small structural changes. To do this, we focus on the Prisoner’s Dilemma game and on the set of stochastic strategies that are conditioned on the last action of the player’s opponent. Strategies such as Tit-For-Tat (TFT) and Always-Defect (ALLD) are particular and classical cases within...

Solutions to the twisted Yang-Baxter equation arising from intertwin-ers for cyclic representations of U q (sl n) are described via two coupled the lattice current algebras.

In this study, an iron oxide magnetic microparticles and poly(dimethylsiloxane) (MMPs-PDMS) composite material was employed to demonstrate a simple high-strength reversible magnetic bonding method. This paper presents the casting of opaque-view (where optical inspection through the microchannels was impossible) and clear-view (where optical inspection through the microchannel was possible) MMPs...

Electrochemically active composite film containing multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and vitamin B(12) was synthesized on glassy carbon, gold, and indium tin oxide electrodes by the potentiodynamic method. The presence of MWCNTs in the composite film (MWCNT-B(12)) modified electrode mediates vitamin B(12)'s redox reaction, whereas vitamin B(12)'s redox reaction does not occur at bare electr...

Optically transparent thin films with thermochromic properties have been fabricated by means of cointercalation of different molar ratios of 4-(4-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulfonate (AO5) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDS) into the galleries of a ZnAl layered double hydroxide (LDH). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of these thin films show that they are assembled in a highly c-oriented...

Nanocrystalline cadmium sulfide thin films as antireflection materials for solar cells have been prepared by a new chemical solution deposition route in an aqueous medium at 50 °C. as-deposited thin films were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and optical absorption spectra. X-ray diffraction data indicated the formation of hexagonal na...

For the first time, highly c-axis oriented heteroepitaxial AlN thin films have been successfully grown on epitaxial 3C-SiC films on Si (100) substrates. The AlN films deposited by the AC reactive magnetron sputtering at temperatures of approximately 300-450 °C were characterized using the scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmissio...
