Infobox equilibrium name Risk dominance br Payoff dominance subsetof Nash equilibrium supersetof discoverer John Harsanyi , Reinhard Selten Reinhard Selten usedfor Non cooperative game s example Stag hunt Risk dominance and payoff dominance are two related refinements of the Nash equilibrium NE solution concept in game theory , defined by John Harsanyi and Reinhard Selten . A Nash equilibrium is considered payoff dominant if it is Pareto efficiency Pareto superior to all other Nash equilibria in the game. ref 1 1 When faced with a choice among equilibria, all players would agree on the payoff dominant equilibrium since it offers to each player at least as much payoff as the other Nash equilibria. Conversely, a Nash equilibrium is considered risk dominant if it has the largest basin of attraction , meaning the more uncertainty players have about the actions of the other player s , the more likely they will choose the strategy corresponding to it. The payoff matrix in Figure 1 provides a simple two player, two strategy example of a game with two pure Nash equilibria. The strategy pair Hunt, Hunt is payoff dominant since payoffs are higher for both players compared to the other pure NE, Gather, Gather . On the other hand, Gather, Gather risk dominates Hunt, Hunt since if uncertainty exists about the other player s action, gathering will provide a higher expected payoff. The game in Figure 1 is a well known game theoretic dilemma called stag hunt . The rationale behind it is that communal action hunting yields a higher return if all players combine their skills, but if it is unknown whether the other player helps in hunting, gathering might turn out to be the better individual strategy for food provision, since it does not depend on coordination game coordinating with the other player. In addition, gathering alone is preferred to gathering in competition ... to take risk dominance as the relevant selection criterion. References Samuel Bowles ... more details

Genetic basis of heterosis When a population is small or inbred, it tends to lose genetic diversity. Inbreeding depression is the loss of fitness due to loss of genetic diversity. Inbred strains tend to be homozygous for recessive alleles that are mildly harmful or produce a trait that is undesirable from the standpoint of the breeder . Heterosis or hybrid vigor, on the other hand, is the tendency of outbred strains to exceed both inbred parents in fitness.
