Cancers arise from genetic abberations but also consistently display high levels of intra-tumor heterogeneity and evolve according to Darwinian dynamics. This makes evolutionary game theory an ideal tool in which to mathematically capture these cell-cell interactions and in which to investigate how they impact evolutionary dynamics. In this chapter we present some examples of how evolutionary game theory can elucidate cancer evolution.

The emergence of online car-hailing service provides an innovative approach to vehicle booking but has negatively influenced the taxi industry in China. This paper modeled taxi service mode choice based on evolutionary game theory (EGT). The modes included the dispatching and online car-hailing modes. We constructed an EGT framework, including determining the strategies and the payoff matrix. We introduced different behaviors, including taxi company management, driver operation, and passenger choice. This allowed us to model the impact of these behaviors on the evolving process of service mode choice. The results show that adjustments in taxi company, driver, and passenger behaviors impact the evolutionary path and convergence speed of our evolutionary game model. However, it also reveals that, regardless of adjustments, the stable states in the game model remain unchanged. The conclusion provides a basis for studying taxi system operation and management.
