Abstract

Networked evolutionary games (NEGs) are a class of models that capture the interactions and evolution of strategies among rational agents in a network. In this paper, we study the problem of minimum cost control of NEGs with switched topologies and threshold, where the network structure can change over time and the agents have a minimum payoff requirement to survive. Using the semi-tensor product (STP) of matrices, we express the weighted networked evolutionary game in an algebraic form. Then, we propose an efficient algorithm to design the minimum cost control that ensures the survival of the agents. Finally, we demonstrate the validity of our theoretical results with an example and simulations.
