This paper asks whether population growth is conducive to the sustainability of cooperation. A simple model is … of the sustainability of cooperation of the appearance of the mutants in a population that is not growing, and in one … that is growing. It is shown that the ex-ante probability of sustaining the cooperation strategy is higher for a community …

We calculate the equilibrium fraction of cooperators in a population in which payoffs accrue from playing a single-shot prisoner's dilemma game. Individuals who are hardwired as cooperators or defectors are randomly matched into pairs, and cooperators are able to perfectly find out the type of a...
