In this paper, we study an aspiration-induced migration model, in which each individual plays the prisoner’s dilemma … chosen place with the velocity v if his/her payoff is below the aspiration level. We report that cooperative behavior is … favored when the aspiration level and interaction radius are moderate, and the migration velocity is slow. …

and then investigate the evolution of cooperation for different values of aspiration level A. It is found that the … cooperation level exhibits discontinuous phase transition with A and there is a moderate aspiration level that can best favor the …We introduce a deterministic aspiration-based learning mechanism into the prisoner’s dilemma game on regular lattices …

Impact of aspiration is ubiquitous in social and biological disciplines. In this work, we try to explore the impact of … low payoff will be chosen. We find that for positive w, cooperation will be greatly promoted in the interval of small b …, at variance cooperation is inhibited with large b. For negative w, cooperation is fully restrained, irrespective of b …

square lattice and scale-free network indicate that the aspiration level greatly affects the evolution of cooperation. For … small multiplication factors, the frequency of cooperation increases to 0.5 as the aspiration level increases. For large … multiplication factors, intermediate levels of aspiration prove optimal for the successful evolution of public cooperation. Some …
