Prisoner's dilemma game on complex networks with a death process: Effects of minimum requirements and immigration

Physics and Society 2018-11-08 v3 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

We present results of the prisoner's dilemma game on complex networks that have population change. We introduce a death process with minimum requirements and show that it induces a highly cooperative society. We also study the effects of immigration on the society. We show that the acceptable number of immigrants of the society is determined by the population of the society, the ratio of cooperator among immigrants, and the immigration interval. In addition, if immigrants have a preferential attachment link, the acceptable number of immigrants increases.
