(author)Stackelberg evolutionary game (SEG) theory combines classical and evolutionary game theory to frame interactions between a rational leader and evolving followers. In some of these interactions, the leader wants to preserve the evolving system (e.g. fisheries management), while in others, they try to drive the system to extinction (e.g. pest...journal article 2023

Yang, Lijuan (author), Lin, X. (author), Li, Eldon Y. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)Transshipment can be a detour for carriers to bypass congested locks. Therefore, the local government provides subsidies to carriers reluctant to adopt transshipment due to high costs. Using the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) as the subject, we address the interaction between the government and carriers and the rational routine choice for carriers...journal article 2023

Kleshnina, Maria (author), Streipert, Sabrina (author), Brown, Joel S. (author), Staňková, K. (author)Nature exhibits rapid evolution in response to human activities. When using natural resources for their own profit, humans should account for such responses. Stackelberg evolutionary games (SEG) offer a method for modeling interactions between a rational leader (humans) and evolutionary followers (nature). The followers evolve according to...journal article 2023

Martinez-Piazuelo, Juan (author), Ananduta, W. (author), Ocampo-Martinez, Carlos (author), Grammatico, S. (author), Quijano, Nicanor (author)We consider a large population of decision makers that choose their evolutionary strategies based on simple pairwise imitation rules. We describe such a dynamic process by the replicator dynamics. Differently from the available literature, where the payoffs signals are assumed to be updated continuously, we consider a more realistic scenario...journal article 2023

However, the cost and trajectory of each agent may be unavailable to the other agents. Prior work on using partial observations to infer the costs in dynamic games assumes an open-loop...journal article 2023
