Ted Galanthay, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, presents research on modeling ecological dynamics at the University of Arizona

10/23/17

Contributed by David Brown

Dr. Galanthay presented "A game-theoretic approach to modeling ecological dynamics" at the 6th International Conference on Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Populations in Biological Systems on October 20, 2017.   

 

The abstract of Ted's talk follows.

"The Hawk-Dove game theoretic model attempts to explain the evolution of aggression between animals. This model has two parameters that represent Reward and Cost. Recent work introduced theory to incorporate interaction times into two-player matrix games. We apply that theory to develop a series of models to connect the classical Hawk-Dove model to more mechanistic ecological models. We use these models to study the evolution of aggression."
