It is traditionally assumed that during cancer development, tumor cells abort their initially
cooperative behavior (ie, cheat) in favor of evolutionary strategies designed solely to …

An ant colony is the epitome of social organization where up to millions of individuals
cooperate to survive, compete, and reproduce as a single superorganism, Female members …

Ants show striking diversity in social organization, raising major questions on the proximate
and ultimate causes of such variation. The shift from one-queen (= monogyne) societies to …

Among social insects, task allocation within its group members remains as one of the
paramount pillars of social functionality. Division of labor in many eusocial insects is …

Olfactory systems in eusocial insects play a vital role in the discrimination of various
chemical cues. Odorant receptors (ORs) are critical for odorant detection, and this family has …

The empirical examples of the green-beard genes, once a conundrum of evolutionary
biology, are accumulating, while theoretical analyses of this topic are occasional compared …

Kin-recognition is observed across diverse species forming an important behavioral
adaptation influencing organismal interactions. In many species, the molecular mechanisms …

Allonursing is the nursing of the offspring of other mothers. Cooperation is an emergent
property of evolved decision rules. Cooperation can be explained by at least three evolved …

We study the evolution of altruistic behaviour under a model where individuals choose to
cooperate by comparing a set of continuous phenotype tags. Individuals play a donation …

We introduce tag-based expulsion and explore its dynamic influence on cooperative
behavior within a spatial public goods game. Our model employs a multi-agent system …
