An explanation of the stability of the incidence of inborn defects.

We propose a mathematical model for the malformation incidence in a population. The model is based on the assumption that malformations occur in a narrow range of embryotoxic doses for a given toxin and that this range varies in the population. Using this assumption, we exhibit malformation incidence curves which are in qualitative agreement with experimental data.

Darwinian evolution in games with perfect information.

We consider a model of Darwinian evolution in games with perfect information like chess or checkers. The evolution is viewed as a sequence of strategies, each of which wins over its immediate predecessor. We argue that the intelligence level of strategies need not necessarily increase during this type of evolution.

Evolution of replicators playing a strategic game.

A mathematical model of replicator evolution is considered. Replicators are words of a formal language specifying a strategy for a parlour game. They replicate with mutations and are selected according to their pay-off against other replicators.
