The classical game theoretic resolutions to Selten’s Chain Store game are unsatisfactory; they either alter the game to avoid the paradox or struggle to organize the existing experimental data. This paper applies co-evolutionary algorithms to the Chain Store game and demonstrates that the...

We study the asymptotic equilibrium between the degrees of freedom of position and chirality in a generalized quantum walk on the line. For this system, we propose a temperature function in order to characterize this equilibrium. We show that the initial condition determines the equilibrium...

Stochastic optimization methods such as evolutionary algorithms and Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods usually involve a Markov search of the optimization domain. Evolutionary annealing is an evolutionary algorithm that leverages all the information gathered by previous queries to the cost...
