Invariable distribution of co-evolutionary complex adaptive systems with agent's behavior and local topological...

In this study, we developed a dynamical Multi-Local-Worlds (MLW) complex adaptive system with co-evolution of agent's behavior and local topological configuration to predict whether agents' behavior would converge to a certain invariable distribution and derive the conditions that should be satisfied by the invariable distribution of the optimal strategies in a dynamical system structure. To this end, a Markov process controlled by agent's behavior and local graphic topology configuration was constructed to describe the dynamic case's interaction property. After analysis, the invariable distribution of the system was obtained using the stochastic process method. Then, three kinds of agent's behavior (smart, normal, and irrational) coupled with corresponding behaviors, were introduced as an example to prove that their strategies converge to a certain invariable distribution. The results showed that an agent selected his/her behavior according to the evolution of random complex networks driven by preferential attachment and a volatility mechanism with its payment, which made the complex adaptive system evolve. We conclude that the corresponding invariable distribution was determined by agent's behavior, the system's topology configuration, the agent's behavior noise, and the system population. The invariable distribution with agent's behavior noise tending to zero differed from that with the population tending to infinity. The universal conclusion, corresponding to the properties of both dynamical MLW complex adaptive system and cooperative/non-cooperative game that are much closer to the common property of actual economic and management events that have not been analyzed before, is instrumental in substantiating managers' decision-making in the development of traffic systems, urban models, industrial clusters, technology innovation centers, and other applications.
