EVOLUTION IN SYMMETRIC INCOMPLETEINFORMATION GAMES

The paper compares two models of evolution in symmetric twoplayergames with incomplete information. One model postulates thatthe type of a player is fixed, and evolution works within types. Inthe other model type-contingent strategies evolve. In the case of twotypes and two strategies it is shown that the stability properties ofstationary states are the same under the two dynamics when payoffsdo not depend on the type of the other player, but may differ whenthey do.
