Abstract

A collection of code used for the visualization and analysis of the structured coordination game in the dual setting. The structured coordination game is typically understood by examining strategy profiles. By examining the boundaries of strategy profiles instead, the game can be understood in a different light. Although the dual concept does not give us any additional numerical power in the discrete case, in the continuous case, considering the boundaries of strategic communities can be exceptionally powerful, especially in the setting where individuals only interact with a vanishingly small area of players around them. The code in this repository is used to visualize and analyze the continuous version of the coordination game. In this newest update, the code has been generalized to examine the biased version of the same game. Where it appears, the parameter "bias" describes the relative payoff of strategy 2 compared to strategy 1. Changing this parameter away from 1 results in dynamics far different from the neutral case.
