EVOLUTIONARY STABLE STATE 2)
← Back
A global state of a set of interrelated evolving systems such as their global equilibrium cannot anymore be modified by any change in any of the systems.
This model has been created by mathematical biologists, in particular John Maynard SMITH (P. BAK, 1996, p.125)
It appears in Economics, as the "Nash equilibrium" and reflects a very general situation corresponding to evolutive blockage. However such appearently final state can be ruptured. But the conditions leading to a renewal of evolution are not yet clear.
