By investigating evolutionary PDGs on random networks with two distinct degrees, we find some resonance-type behaviors of the cooperator frequency with the variation of degree. We also find that increasing hums degree actually disfavors the cooperation though the heterogeneity in degree can enhance cooperation in the population.展开更多

However, previous works using the ansatz only focused on the evolution of the order parameter and the information on desynchronized oscillators is less discussed. In this work, we show that the Ott-Antonsen ansatz can also be applied to investigate the desynchronous dynamics in coupled phase oscillators. Studying the original Kuramoto model and two of its variants, we find that the dynamics of α(ω), the coefficient in the Fourier series of the probability density, can give most of the information on the synchronization, for example, the threshold of natural frequency delimiting the oscillators synchronized and desychronized by the mean field, the formulation of the effective frequency ωe (ω) of desynchronous oscillators, and the structure of the graph ωe (ω).展开更多

We assume that individuals play prisoner's dilemma game (PDG) in one layer and snowdrift game (SDG) in the other. We explore the dependences of the fraction of the strategy cooperation in different layers on the game parameter and initial conditions. The results on two-layer square lattices show that, when cooperation is the dominant strategy, initial conditions strongly influence cooperation in the PDG layer while have no impact in the SDG layer. Moreover, in contrast to the result for PDG in single-layer square lattices, the parameter regime where cooperation could be maintained expands significantly in the PDG layer. We also investigate the effects of mutation and network topology. We find that different mutation rates do not change the cooperation behaviors. Moreover, similar behaviors on cooperation could be found in two-layer random networks.展开更多

The results on two-layer square lattices show that, when cooperation is the dominant strategy, initial conditions strongly influence cooperation in the PDG layer while have no impact in the SDG layer.
