Evolutionarily stable state

A population can be described as being in an evolutionarily stable state when that population's "genetic composition is restored by selection after a disturbance, provided the disturbance is not too large" (Maynard Smith, 1982). This population as a whole can be either monomorphic or polymorphic. This is now referred to as convergent stability. (Wikipedia).

11. Evolutionary stability: cooperation, mutation, and equilibrium

Game Theory (ECON 159) We discuss evolution and game theory, and introduce the concept of evolutionary stability. We ask what kinds of strategies are evolutionarily stable, and how this idea from biology relates to concepts from economics like domination and Nash equilibrium. The informal

Game theory (3), more complicated strategies and equilibria.

This video elaborates on the concept of stable strategies and evolutionary equilibria to include polymorphisms of pure strategies and the evolution of mixed strategies such as phenotypic plasticity.

Shifts in Equilibrium

Equilibrium occurs when the overall state of a system is constant. Equilibrium can be static (nothing in the system is changing), or dynamic (little parts of the system are changing, but overall the state isn't changing). In my video, I'll demonstrate systems in both types of equilibrium,

12. Evolutionary stability: social convention, aggression, and cycles

Game Theory (ECON 159) We apply the idea of evolutionary stability to consider the evolution of social conventions. Then we consider games that involve aggressive (Hawk) and passive (Dove) strategies, finding that sometimes, evolutionary populations are mixed. We discuss how such games ca

We are learning about the features of innate immunity, and one that is often overlooked is the complement system. This is a very complicated ensemble of proteins circulating in the bloodstream that activate each other in a specific sequence that results in immune system engagement to kill

Why Do Flamingos Stand on One Leg?

It seems like kind of an awkward way to spend most of your time, but flamingos seem perfectly happy to hang out on one leg. For a long time, people assumed they were trying to conserve heat. But thanks to some unusual research, we now know the real reason! Go to http://Brilliant.org/SciSh
