Abstract

Under what conditions can cooperation emerge and be sustained? Previous studies abstract cooperation and defection using the spatial Prisoner’s Dilemma (PD) game. We study a local reputation mechanism in which agents can remember defectors, abstain from interacting with them, and warn nearby agents. Simulations find that local reputation is effective in sustaining cooperation and punishing defection. Further, we find that the size of agent memory and amount of gossip are not significant factors, provided that the locality range of gossip is greater than the agent movement speed.
