We tackle three components of evolutionary modelling: payoffs, dynamical systems and equilibrium concepts. Firstly, we merely require that fitness functions are continuous. Secondly, we examine very general classes of dynamics. Thirdly, we give useful parallels to the Nash equilibrium and the...

Sign-compatible dynamics describe changes in the composition of a population driven by differences in fitness. A saturated equilibrium is a fixed point for sign-compatible dynamics where each subgroup with positive population share has highest fitness. An evolutionary stable equilibrium is a...
