New evolutionary game dynamics offer faster and more accurate solutions for the maximum clique problem. An annealing approach helps avoid local optima, outperforming current methods.

Area of Science:

  • Computational Mathematics
  • Graph Theory
  • Evolutionary Game Theory

Background:

  • Replicator equations, a tool from evolutionary game theory, are effective for solving the maximum clique problem.
  • The maximum clique problem can be framed as a continuous quadratic program, leveraging dynamical system properties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Generalize existing evolutionary game dynamics for solving quadratic programs and the maximum clique problem.
  • Introduce and analyze a novel class of payoff-monotonic dynamics.
  • Develop an annealed imitation heuristic to overcome local optima in these models.

Main Methods:

  • Introduced a family of payoff-monotonic dynamics, generalizing replicator equations.
  • Analyzed the dynamical properties and Lyapunov functions of these dynamics.

  • Investigated annealed imitation heuristics by varying a regularization parameter.
  • Main Results:

    • Payoff-monotonic dynamics share beneficial properties with replicator equations, offering faster and equally accurate solutions.
    • The proposed annealed imitation heuristics effectively avoid poor local optima.
    • New models outperform state-of-the-art neural network algorithms for maximum clique.

    Conclusions:

    • Payoff-monotonic dynamics provide a powerful and flexible framework for tackling the maximum clique problem.
    • Annealing strategies significantly enhance the performance of evolutionary dynamics by escaping local optima.
    • This research presents a promising new direction for combinatorial optimization using game-theoretic approaches.
