Coalitions, tipping points and the speed of evolution

Newton, Jonathan; Angus, Simon D. - In: Journal of Economic Theory 157 (2015) C, pp. 172-187

This study considers waiting times for populations to achieve efficient social coordination. Belloc and Bowles [1] conjecture that coalitional behavior will hasten such coordination. This turns out to be true when every member of the population interacts with every other member, but does not...

Coalitional stochastic stability

Newton, Jonathan - In: Games and Economic Behavior 75 (2012) 2, pp. 842-854

This paper takes the idea of coalitional behavior – groups of people occasionally acting together to their mutual benefit – and incorporates it into the framework of evolutionary game theory that underpins the social learning literature. An equilibrium selection criterion is defined which we...
