Abstract

Collective functions are typically evaluated at the level of groups of agents, and group structure is important for understanding the impact of heterogeneity-induced conflicts. If mathematical models often assume that group form independently of the agents' strategies, in nature group formation and group function commonly depend on the same set of traits.

In this lecture, I will address different models where the ecological and evolutionary dynamics are coupled through the process of group formation, and discuss their relevance to the evolution of aggregative multicellularity.
