Evolution of Cooperation in Evolutionary Games for Heterogeneous Interactions

When a population structure is modelled as a square lattice,the cooperation may be improved for an evolutionary prisoner dilemma game or be inhibited for an evolutionary snowdrift game.In this work,we investigate cooperation in a population on a square lattice where the interaction among players contains both prisoner dilemma game and snowdrift game.The heterogeneity in interaction is introduced to the population in two different ways:the heterogenous character of interaction assigned to every player(HCP) or the heterogenous character of interaction assigned to every link between any two players(HCL).The resonant enhancement of cooperation in the case of HCP is observed while the resonant inhibition of cooperation in the case of HCL is prominent.The explanations on the enhancement or inhibition of cooperation are presented for these two cases.     

Transition to Antiphase Synchronization

We study the anti-phase synchronization （APS） in a system of two coupled chaotic oscillators. The necessary condition and the stability analysis for the APS are given theoretically. The APS state in specific systems such as Chua circuits and Lorenz oscillators are numerically studied. The different types of transitions to APS in both the systems are found.
