Environment-dependent payoffs in finite populations

Abstract

In constant-payoff finite population games, when selection is weak and population size is large, the one-third law serves as the condition for a strategy to be advantageous. We generalize the result to the case where payoff matrices are environment-dependent and provide a more general law. In this way we model feedback from the environment and show its impact on the dynamics.
