In this chapter, we explore the use of evolutionary game theory (EGT) (Weibull, 1995; Taylor & Jonker, 1978; Nowak & May, 1993) to model the dynamics of adaptive opponent strategies for large population of players. In particular, we explore effects of information propagation through social networks in Evolutionary Games. The key underlying phenomenon that the information diffusion aims to capture is that reasoning about the experiences of acquaintances can dramatically impact the dynamics of a society. We present experimental results from agent-based simulations that show the impact of diffusion through social networks on the player strategies of an evolutionary game and the sensitivity of the dynamics to features of the social network.

Link prediction in social network has gained momentum with the inception of machine learning. The social networks are evolving into smart dynamic networks possessing various relevant information about the user. The relationship between users can be approximated by evaluation of similarity between the users. Online social network (OSN) refers to the formulation of association (relationship/links) between users known as nodes. Evolution of OSNs such as Facebook, Twitter, Hi-Fi, LinkedIn has provided a momentum to the growth of such social networks, whereby millions of users are joining it. The online social network evolution has motivated scientists and researchers to analyze the data and information of OSN in order to recommend the future friends. Link prediction is a problem instance of such recommendation systems. Link prediction is basically a phenomenon through which potential links between nodes are identified on a network over the period of time. In this chapter, the authors describe the similarity metrics that further would be instrumental in recognition of future links between nodes.

A standard evolutionary game theory model is used to reveal the interpersonal and geographic characteristics of a population that make it vulnerable to accepting the genocidal aims of political leaders. Under conditions identified in the space-less version of the model, genocide architects can engineer the social metamorphosis of a peaceful people-group into one that supports, or does not resist, the architects’ atrocity goals. The model reveals policy interventions that prevent the social evolution of genocide among the population. The model is then extended into geographic space by analyzing interactions among peaceful and aggressive phenotypes in a Moore neighborhood. Key concepts of the analyses are applied to the onset and spread of genocide during the Holocaust (1938-1945) and to the prevention of genocide in Côte d'Ivoire (2011). [JEL codes: C73, D74]

We applaud Gintis's attempt to provide an evolutionary-based framework for the behavioral sciences, and note a number of similarities with our own recent cultural evolutionary structure for the social sciences. Gintis's proposal would be further strengthened by a greater emphasis on additional methods to evolutionary game theory, clearer empirical predictions, and a broader consideration of cultural transmission.
