Abstract
The emergence and inter-play of cooperation versus competition in groups of individuals has been widely studied, for example using game-theoretic models of eusocial insects [11], [1] experimental evolution in bacterium [5], and agent-based models of societal institutions [8]. Game theory models have been demonstrated as indispensable analytical tools to complement our understanding of the emergence and social mechanics of natural phenomena such as cooperation and competition. For example, game theory models have supported the supposition that cooperation between individuals and competition between groups are critical factors in cultural evolution in human societies [2]. However, such game theory models are ultimately limited by their own abstractions and lack consideration for the role of complex phenomena such as evolutionary and environmental change in shaping emergent social phenomena.
