Abstract

Two cases of evolutionary stable strategy with periodic payoffs are studied. The first is a generalization of Uyttendaele et al. The second is prisoner's dilemma with periodic payoff. It is shown that reducing the defection payoff by a periodic term is sufficient to introduce cooperation provided that the initial fraction of cooperators is greater than 0.6.
