%0 Unpublished Work %1 Do2010 %A Do, Anne-Ly %A Gross, Thilo %D 2010 %K networks game-theory coevolution adaptive-networks graphs %T Patterns of cooperation: fairness and coordination in networks of interacting agents %X We study the self-assembly of a complex network of cooperative interactions among rational, self-interested agents. The agents have the ability to maintain different levels of cooperation with different, self-chosen partners. Further, they continuously, selectively, and independently adapt the amount of resources allocated to each of their interactions in order to maximize their payoff. Our mathematical analysis offers an explanation for different behavioral responses described in the psychological literature. Moreover, we show analytically and numerically how a high degree of social coordination can arise from the selective interaction of agents. Nevertheless, some agents achieve privileged topological positions in the network enabling them to extract high payoffs.
