- Evolutionary game theory is of interest to many disciplines. The traditional mathematical theory of games, combined with evolution's survival of the fittest principle, can be used to explain the complex behaviour of populations in a range of biological and social systems. Nash Equilibria (NE) is closely related to evolutionary stability and determines the resilience of population to disturbances. Computing NE is computationally hard and this paper develops tractable and general algorithms for NE on repeated games and evolutionary games. It also develops a new stability analysis based on a subset of NE, based on the new concept of level-k equilibrium.
