Evolutionary dynamic of division of labor games

Abstract The ubiquity of labor division within diverse social collectives is a topic well captured by evolutionary game theory. This work offers an integrative review of the evolutionary dynamics underpinning such division of labor from a tripartite standpoint—commencing with a theoretical exposition on numerous archetypes of labor division games. Subsequently, we delineate a suite of control strategies formulated to not only realize but also sustain the phenomenon of division of labor. This is followed by an elucidation of practical implementations pertaining to the allocation of tasks and labor division, grounded in the principles of game theory. We culminate with the proposition of prospective avenues and insightful trajectories for future investigations, cultivating a frontier for the continued exploration within this field.
