Coevolution of Vertex Weights Resolves Social Dilemma in Spatial Networks

Abstract In realistic social system, the role or influence of each individual varies and adaptively changes in time in the population. Inspired by this fact, we thus consider a new coevolution setup of game strategy and vertex weight on a square lattice. In detail, we model the structured population...
