This is also a perfect example of analyzing eigenvalues to evaluate stability of a system. Assessing your matrix (with all values subtracted by 1 to make the matrix a proper system of ODEs that tracks *changes* in population) pre- vs. post-tie punishment, you can see that the real eigenvalues go from 0 to negative, which indicates a shift from unstable (spiraling towards and around the edges forever) to stable (spiraling towards the center and staying there). Though, for the 0 eigenvalue case, a perfect system maybe should have forever spiraled around the middle of the triangle without reaching the edges. I think the introduction of noise and random fluctuations makes the system less stable, spiraling outwards instead. Thanks for a cool video!

Fun fact, the "brown" strategy is actually an evolutionarily stable strategy specifically because it is a Generalist one that can take control of all the niches when they pop up! Abundance of Scissors? Generalists have the tools to exploit them by going Rock. Abundance of Paper? Generalists can hit them with Scissors pretty much immediately. Abundance of Rock? Paper usage wallops them back down from the Generalists. They win out because they are prepared for any situation, and as a result, can win in any situation.

This is true against any opponent they fought, and therefore their population didn't depend on the others.

In my language (swedish) it's rock, scissors, bag (translated to english obviously). The bag can hold the rock but the scissors cuts the bag. Bags being primarily made of cloth, it makes sense I guess 😊

I would add in behaviors to each one. Rock could play it safe only playing against those who have 1 or less paper choices at a penalty to its food intake, paper could go for food above all else searching specifically for wins and ties, and scissors could play aggressive seeking out the nearest opponent no matter what they throw. Id love to see that simulation.

One thing I'd consider is adding in some form of 'territory', where related blobs are more likely to interact with each other. Perhaps this could increase stability by limiting how effective a small change could reach the entire population. It would be cool if we got to see cyclic fronts of population change.

You could probably do that with location as an explicit parameter - the blobs live in a 2D plane and there are a finite number of mango trees. Maybe the blobs live for 2 or 3 days total, and each day, can choose to either eat at the current tree or move to a different one nearby.

If you make interactions local, the game becomes a cellular automaton. If I remember correctly, you can create a grid of squares with multiple states, where each state beats and replaces the previous one, loses to the next, and draws (no change) with everything else. When you get about 6 states or more, you usually see spirals that cycle through all the states, and gradually spread and overwhelm smaller spirals.

No way, thats the same topic I got for my bachelor thesis in math. (without mixed strategies tho) Got to combine evolutionary game theory, which was a really fun topic, with stochastics (approaching the model with Markov Chains). The theory from Markov Chains gives a lot of explanations for the phenomena seen in the video, for example the absorption probabilities (one strategy reigning supreme) aswell as the expected time until that happens in the non-mutating scenario, and the repetitive cyclic flow as a stationary distribution in the mutating scenario. Another really interesting thing without mutations is "Survival of the Weakest". In the Markov Chains model, but also in reality, for example with E.coli microbes, the strategy that "punishes" its "prey strategy" the least (for example if scissors would only keep 1.5 mangos and give 0.5 mangos to paper, while paper and rock keep the 2 mangos on their wins), usually wins out in the end due the predator strategy being extinguished by the prey strategy they left alive. Perfect example for "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". (The article about the E.coli microbes is called "Survival of the weakest in non-transitive asymmetric interactions among strains of E. coli", if anyone is interested)

thank you so much for making these videos

Love when you upload

It’s a new Primer!!! I’m excited and I haven’t even watched the video yet!!

so glad primer is making vids :)

that was awesome, thanks for making this :)

oh crap, it's Primer! I haven't seen you post in ages, I hadn't realized you were still making things.

Wow this is a beautiful video with a lot of commitment thank you

Fascinating to see how the population spirals and how the different rewards effect it. Great video!

Thank you so much for these videos, and this one in particular. I've been recommending the MIT OpenCourseWare course for Game Theory for a long time, and there's still a ton of value there, but introducing ideas like nash equilibria and ESS to a broader audience is so important. :)

1:38 im so happy you decided to use the fancy name for multidimensional array ♡! /srs and happy

I thought this channel was dead! Thank you returning, frendo!

WOOO, it's been too long without a Primer video!

An amazing explanation as always ❤

Seeing the paper comically cut the rock in two at 1:40 is hilarious

As usual, excellent and interesting video! My predictions were quite wrong! I appreciate the reminders sprinkled throughout to encourage people to actively predict and not passively watch the video! :)

the title honestly gave me a weird expectation of what was in this video and its way better than i expected i hope there's nobody passing it up (esp if they dont know the channel) cuz of that and missing this awesome video this has helped me understand population dynamics way better
