The theory of autocatalytic binary ligation is reviewed within the context of a rigorously applied Michaelis-Menten quasi-steady-state approximation to obtain explicit analytical results describing time-course data from experiments. A detailed protocol for the step-wise elucidation of a minimal...

A simple model of tag-mediated partner selection for agents playing the IPD is described. The agents strategies are … selection is biased toward agents with similar tags. Each agent plays a small sample of other agents each generation. The … selection can lead to the emergence of some reciprocity even when individuals play only one or two rounds in each IPD game. …

A model of an evolving network of interacting molecular species is shown to exhibit repeated rounds of crashes in which several species get rapidly depopulated, followed by recoveries. The network inevitably self-organizes into an autocatalytic structure, which consists of an irreducible 'core'...

We introduce a method for visualizing evolutionary activity of genotypes. Following a proposal of Bedau and Packard[11], we define a genotype's evolutionary activity in terms of the history of its concentration in the evolving population. To visualize this evolutionary activity we graph the...
