Following John Maynard Smith, evolutionary game theory matured to a powerful metaphor of evolutionary and coevolutionary dynamics. In recent years, significant progress has been achieved in evolutionary dynamics in finite populations, which allows to systematically relate microscopic models and macroscopic descriptions. Another major topic that reaches across many disciplines is evolutionary dynamics on networks as well as the interplay between the evolution on networks and the evolution of network structures.
Complemented by new experimental data, it is expected that the methodical progress will inspire related disciplines dealing with agent-based models, chemical reaction kinetics, ecological and evolutionary models at large, and social, behavioural, and economic systems.
The workshop invites contributions to all related emerging topics, with an emphasis on those being relevant to both, game theory and evolution.
