Evolutionary game theory provides a powerful framework to study strategic interactions in biological, social, and technological systems. When spatial structure is introduced, the interplay between local interactions and global dynamics can lead to rich and sometimes counterintuitive outcomes, often in contrast to classical results from game theory.

In this talk, I will present recent advances in evolutionary game dynamics on networks, with an emphasis on how structural heterogeneity, higher-order interactions, and stochastic effects shape the emergence and stability of cooperative behavior. I will discuss classical results such as conditions for cooperation on graphs, as well as recent progress on dynamics in hypergraphs, which capture group interactions beyond pairwise links. This talk will provide both a conceptual overview and insights into ongoing challenges at the intersection of evolutionary dynamics and network science.
