Sexual selection depletes genetic variation but depleted genetic variation limits the efficacy
of sexual selection—a long-standing enigma known as the lek paradox. Here we offer a twist …

Mutations affect individual health, population persistence, adaptation, diversification, and
genome evolution. There is evidence that the mutation rate varies among genotypes, but the …

As organisms age, DNA of somatic cells deteriorates, but it is believed that germ cells are
protected from DNA‐damaging agents. In recent years, this vision has been challenged by …

We study the long-run conventions emerging in a stag-hunt game when agents are myopic
best responders. Our main novel assumption is that errors converge to zero at a rate that is …

The rate by which new mutations are introduced into a population may have far-reaching
implications for processes at the population level. Theory assumes that all individuals within …

The ability of a population to adapt to changing environments depends critically on the
amount and kind of genetic variability it possesses. Mutations are an important source of …

Evolution is cybernetic. Cybernetic systems have separate input and output channels and a
closed feedback loop that enables the systems to learn. The evolutionary Black Box can be …

Evolution has no foresight but cumulative evidence indicates that it is far-sighted. Evolution
is cybernetic. A cybernetic system requires a closed signal loop: action by the system causes …

Background: Acceleration of adaptation dynamics by stress-induced hypermutation has
been found experimentally. Evolved evolvability is a prominent explanation. We investigate …
