Symmetry and Collective Fluctuations in Evolutionary Games

by Supriya Krishnamurthy, Eric Smith, Krishnamurthy Smith

Evolutionary game theory has the potential to provide an integrated framework to model many aspects of evolution, development, and ecology. The reliable use of game models, however, requires an understanding of their behaviour when the number of players becomes very large, resulting in the emergence of thermodynamic limits. This book presents methods to derive large-deviations limits for population processes, and apply these to game models illustrating...
