Event details

Take a finite population of individuals. Add some dynamics to let them evolve. Let them interact with each other via some games. Add also some population structure. Which can evolve too. By now this looks unpleasantly complicated for analytical work. One can, however, obtain some exact results in the weakly interacting limit. Namely, we'll discuss a perturbation expansion to the smallest order.
