This book provides a systematic treatment of the mathematical aspects of evolutionary stability, which has become a central concept in theoretical biology and biomathematics in recent years. The purpose of the book is to create a general mathematical theory for evolutionary stability, which allows a unified treatment of the seemingly unrelated case by case studies currently dominating the literature on this subject. This goal is achieved by laying out the framework for a general game theoretical model containing the models considered in the literature as special cases. Furthermore, conditions for evolutionary stability and for a stricter stability concept are explored. Apart from the general discussion, these stability concepts are studied extensively in some important classes of evolutionary games, which have been investigated in the literature. The relation between evolutionary stability and the replicator dynamics is also discussed.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -These Lecture Notes arose from discussions we had over a working paper written by the first author in fall 1987. We decided then to write a short paper about the basic structure of evolutionary stability and found ourselves ending up with a book manuscript. Parts of the material contained herein were presented in a seminar at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Vienna, as well as at a workshop on evolutionary game theory in Bielefeld. The final version of the manuscript has certainly benefitted from critical comments and suggestions by the participants of both the seminar and the workshop. Thanks are also due to S. Bomze-de Barba, R. Burger, G. Danninger, J. Hofbauer, R. Selten, K. Sigmund, G. Stiastny and F. Weising. The co-operation of W. Muller from Springer Verlag, Heidelberg, is gratefully acknowledged.
