This lecture explores higher-order interactions and social evolution as part of the "Decisions, Games, and Evolution" program organized by ICTS Bengaluru. Delve into the fascinating world of cooperation across biological scales, from cellular interactions to complex societies. Learn how evolutionary game theory provides a framework for understanding cooperation, opinion dynamics, fairness evolution, and spiteful behavior in both biological and cultural contexts. The presentation examines how individual choices in social conflicts are influenced by local environments and population network structures, the impact of individual behavior evolution on population outcomes, and the role of learning in choice evolution. This interdisciplinary talk brings together perspectives from biology, cognitive science, economics, and physics to foster collaboration among diverse academic communities interested in understanding decision-making across all scales.
