Evolutionary dynamics of a 3-strategy game: Cooperator, defector and costly cooperative loner strategic types

作者:

Highlights:

• A new 3-strategy game introducing cooperator, defector, and costly cooperative loner strategic types is presented.

• Using replicator dynamics approach, some analytical discussions are provided.

• Adding the costly cooperative loner as a third strategic type does not alter the original dynamics of the prisoner's dilemma game.
