Hamiltonian Riemannian Game Dynamics

Riemannian game dynamics1 are dynamics for one-population games induced by the payoff vector field. Under some circumstances, such dynamics display Hamiltonian properties2.

Geometric Aspects of Learning and Evolution in Games

The space of finite normal form games admits a non-canonical direct sum decomposition into the subspaces of non-strategic, potenti, and harmonic games3, closely related to the discrete Hodhe decomposition for simplicial complexes. I am interested in an analogue decomposition for games with continuous strategy space (concave games), and continuous population space (population games)
