    A cyclical wildfire pattern as the outcome of a coupled human natural system

    Base run simulationFigure 6 shows the results of the base run simulation. In this scenario, strong vegetation declines over time, while the empty area and flammable vegetation have increasing trends. As such, more fuel would be available for burning, and the wildfire can burn broader areas. Panel (a) shows an oscillatory trend for the burn rate with an average upward trend (To make sure the oscillatory behavior of the model does not fade, Appendix 4 shows the simulation result for 100 years). The observed pattern in the burn rate can be traced back to the patterns of human ignition (Panel b), and the growing trend of vulnerable properties (Panel c). In addition, the results show the long-term declining trend of strong vegetation in our base line simulation (Panel d); over time, stronger vegetation is replaced by flammable vegetation which can lead to more fire. This change in vegetation composition effectively increases the average burn rate. Over time, with more flammable vegetation and with the expansion of vulnerable properties, the likelihood of human-made ignition increases.Figure 6Base run simulation for a 20-year run of the model.Full size imageCoupling effectsFigure 7 shows how the relation between perceived fire risk and the burn rate influences the system. The black line is the base run simulation for comparison. The blue dashed line depicts the condition in which risk perception changes extremely slowly, and the human system is almost disconnected from the natural system. In this situation, if humans underestimate the fire potential, the system burns down nature, resulting in a catastrophic environmental outcome as depicted in panel (a). Panel (a) shows that the burn rate overshoots in the short term but relatively declines due to less remaining natural resources to burn.Figure 7Coupling effect analysis for 20 years. Human ignition unit is Ignition/year, and vulnerable property unit is a million hectares. Strong vegetation and flammable vegetation are provided as the ratio that each occupied the forest area.Full size imagePanel (b) displays the total burn rate throughout the study time to cast further insight into the burn rate sensitivity to perceived risk. The overall burn rate does not significantly change when the risk perception changes from 0.5 to 2, indicating the difference among burn rates in panel (a) is more about the fluctuation timing, but not the size. However, an additional rise in the sense of risk greatly raises the overall burn rate, as seen in panel (a).In the case of prolonged change in risk perception, human ignition continues to increase (panel c) as the perceived risk changes slowly. Furthermore, vulnerable properties are being built faster than their demolition (panel d). A slighter delay in perception leads to a higher frequency of oscillation as depicted in the graphs by the red dashed lines and a longer delay in a lower frequency oscillation, as shown by the purple graphs. Overall, the results are not much different from the base run. We are losing forests (panel e) and have periodic burn rates of increasing magnitude over time.Policy experimentsHere we examine the impact of implementing four proposed policies introduced in Table 2. To prevent the initial condition and transition periods affecting our comparison of proposed policies, we imposed each policy at the fifth year and compared the total burn rates between 10 and 20 years. Figure 8 shows the effect of these policies on different variables. Figure 8Policy implementation. Note: P1: limits vulnerable property development; P2: prescribed burning; P3: effective firefighting; and P4: Clear cutting. Human ignition unit is Ignition/year, and vulnerable property unit is a million hectares. Strong vegetation and flammable vegetation are provided as the ratio that each occupied the forest area.Full size imagePanels (a) and (b) show the burn rate over time and cumulative, respectively. All four policies reduce the burn-rate magnitude compared to the base run. P3 is more effective in early burning-rate reduction compared to other policies, but they ultimately result in similar behavior. It is worth noticing that P1 has the most effect on long-run fluctuation reduction, although its total effect in the time span is less than P3. It seems that firefighting is more effective in the short run, but it fails to dampen the fluctuation and instead limits its growth. This is partly because of the increase in human ignition and settlement due to the success of firefighting in the short run. As a result, people perceive less fire danger and continue to engage in high-risk activities and expand housing in the WUI. The result is further fluctuation in the burn rate even when P3 is implemented. On the other hand, the WUI expansion limitation policy can effectively reduce the burn-rate fluctuation in a timely manner. Implementing P4 causes a reduction in strong vegetation, which leads to flammable vegetation increase. As flammable vegetation is the main fuel for wildfire, this policy cause increase in fuel availability and an increase in the burning rate.Change in human ignition is provided in panel (c). Different levels of human-made ignition are observable, and the reason is that people adjust their high-risk behavior with burn rate, and not with the number of fires. In the firefighting policy, as for a given level of ignition, the burn rate declines, we observe more risky behavior and more human-made ignition. It is interesting to note that, as panel (c) shows, we end up with more WUI under policies 2, 3, and 4. In fact, the reason is that the firefighting, prescribed burning and clear cutting only affect natural sector of the model, decrease burn rate, which decreases risk perception and in turn result in more WUI development. On the other hand, P1 directly targets WUIs.Panel (e) displays the change in strong vegetation, which shows that P4 causes the most reduction in forest tree cover as it directly removes strong vegetation. P2 also causes a decrease in strong vegetation compared to the base run. The reason is that burning flammable vegetation damages young trees and prevents them from developing into solid vegetation. On the other hand, P3 has the least effect on strong vegetation by slowing the damage to young trees and confining the fire. Panel (f) shows the flammable vegetation dynamic after imposing each policy. P3 and P2 reduce flammable vegetation more than P1. However, there is an important difference in how these policies cause the reduction in flammable vegetation. In comparing panels (a) and (b), we see that while P3 causes further increases in the strong vegetation, P2 causes an increase in the empty area. P4 is the only policy that increases flammable vegetation by removing the strong vegetation and providing an empty area to be filled with young vegetation.Overall, it looks like each policy has some marginal effect on containing wildfire, though the magnitudes of effect are not considerable.Replication of United States dataFor model validation, we investigate its ability to fit a single case, United States’ wildfires from 1996 to 2015. We utilize the United States Department of Agriculture’s wildfire database for the conterminous United States (Short, 2017). The results are shown in Fig. 9. In this figure, simulation of burning rate and human ignition (continuous lines, in black) closely follows the real-world data (dotted lines, in red), and the model fairly replicates the historical trends.Figure 9Burning rate and human ignition per unit of forest area. The black line represents the model result, and the red dotted line represents the historical wildfire activity in the conterminous United States.Full size imageCombination policy implementation analysisTo better understand the impacts of our policies, we run different pairs of policies simultaneously. The results illustrate the nonlinear incremental impacts between policies. Simply put, it appears that the impact of several policies is enforced when combined synergistically. In other words, applying several policies might have a greater overall impact than the sum of the policies’ individual effects and suggests that policymakers should avoid searching for a panacea and adopt a broad range of approaches thoughtfully.The results of multiple policy implementations along with single ones are presented in Fig. 10. For example, P1 and P2 each reduce the total burn rate by 4.9% and 4.5%, respectively. While the summation of these effects is 9.4%, simultaneously implementing P1 and P2 lead to a 13.6% burn-rate reduction—P1 controls the human ignition, and P2 reduces the flammable vegetation stock—together, the burn rate is more affected than if implemented separately. The case is more interesting when P1 and P3 are imposed together. The result is a 38% burn-rate reduction compared to 13.9%, which is the sum of solely implementing each policy. The synergic effect happens because P3 lets the flammable vegetation (mainly young trees) age and become strong vegetation. Furthermore, the P1 also prevents human ignition from growing as fast as a single P3 implementation.Figure 10The nonlinear effect of policies. The benefits of implementing multiple policies differ from the sum of the effect of policies. The figure shows the percent of burn rate reduction. Note: P1: limit vulnerable property development; P2: prescribed burning; P3: effective firefighting; and P4: Clear cutting.Full size imageAn interesting case happens when P2 and P3 are implemented together. The synergic effect is less than the sum of separate implementation, mainly because both policies affect the vegetation dynamic and not the human factor in the wildfire. P2 and P3 both cause a lower initial burn rate, but due to the reduction in perceived risk of wildfire and expansion of WUI, this effect quickly disappears. This is another evidence for the importance of considering the problem as an interconnected natural and human system, where effective policies should address both sides.Finally, an interesting result emerges when all policies impose together. Surprisingly, imposing all policies together does not have the most impact on the total burn rate (32.5%), which is less than the P1 and P3 effect (38.0%). The reason relates mainly to the fact P2 and P4 both cause increase in flammable vegetation after empty area filled, which lead to more burning rate after a delay.Sensitivity analysisWe conducted a series of sensitivity analysis to check the model’s robustness to our assumptions. Specifically, we conducted a Monte-Carlo analysis and changed several parameter values to determine the range of outcomes. The results are reported in Appendix 2. In summary, the focus was on parameters that can take on substantially different values from those assumed in the model, including parameters used for risk perception formulation, its effect on human behavior, such as time to perceive risk and time to change behavior, in addition to fractional burning rate per ignition, average s burning, initial flammable vegetation, initial strong vegetation, human ignition multiplier, and initial vulnerable property. As described in the Appendix, for most of these variables, we changed the corresponding variable up to double its base run value. Moreover, we test different values for initial strong vegetation and initial flammable vegetation changing them between zero and their base run values. Each sensitivity test is the outcome of 2000 simulation runs using a uniformly distributed random distribution of the parameters within the specified intervals. The results are qualitatively robust, and their variability is within reasonable limits (See Figure A1). More

    Salmon lice in the Pacific Ocean show evidence of evolved resistance to parasiticide treatment

    BioassaysSalmon-louse bioassays were performed by the BC Centre for Aquatic Health Sciences (CAHS) as described in Saksida et al.10. Briefly, motile (i.e., pre-adult and adult) L. salmonis were collected from 11 salmon farms in the Broughton Archipelago (BA) between 2010 and 2021 and transported to CAHS in Campbell River, BC. Within 18 h of collection, healthy lice were separated by sex and randomly placed into petri dishes each containing approximately 10 lice (mean ± SD = 9.6 ± 1.1) and subjected to one of six EMB concentrations (either 0, 31.3, 62.5, 125, 250, and 500 ppb or 0, 62.5, 125, 250, 500, and 1000 ppb, depending on suspected variation in EMB sensitivity11). Each collection corresponded to one bioassay, and each bioassay contained roughly four replicates for each sex (4.0 ± 1.3 for females and 3.6 ± 0.9 for males). After 24 h of EMB exposure, lice were classified as alive if they could swim and attach to the petri dish, or moribund/dead otherwise. Lice were kept at 10 °C throughout the process. In total, 34 bioassays were conducted from 11 farms between October 2010 and November 2021.We analysed the proportion of lice that survived exposure to EMB, using standard statistical descriptions that accounted for within-assay dependencies (generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) with logit link functions, fitted separately to the data from each bioassay). The models included fixed effects for EMB concentration, sex, and the interaction between the two, as well as a random intercept for petri dish. For each analysis, we centered concentration values and scaled them by one standard deviation. We used the GLMM fits to calculate the effective concentrations at which 50% of the lice survived (EC50) in each bioassay. The GLMM for one bioassay produced a singular fit because there was not enough variation in the female survival data to warrant the random-effects structure. We retained the EC50 values resulting from this singular fit because re-fitting without the random intercept yielded identical EC50 values, and removing the entire bioassay from the overall dataset did not qualitatively affect the subsequent analysis.To assess whether the sensitivity of salmon lice to EMB has decreased over time, we fitted a set of five standard GLMs with gamma error distributions and log link functions to the maximum-likelihood EC50 estimates. Each of these five models included binary effects for sex and for whether the farm’s stock had previously been treated, since both affect EMB sensitivity in lice10. The first model included only these two effects and served as a null model that assumed lice did not evolve EMB resistance over time. The second model added a fixed effect for time (i.e., the number of days since January 1, 2010), while the third model included an interaction between time and sex. The fourth and fifth models were identical to the second and third, but with a quadratic effect for time, to account for possible first-order nonlinearity. We were unable to add an effect for farm due to small sample sizes. We performed model selection using the Akaike Information Criterion penalized for small sample sizes AICc25, treating AICc differences of less than two as being indistinguishable in terms of statistical support and selecting the least complex model when that was the case26. The ΔAICc values for the EC50 models were 48.1, 6.1, 4.9, 0, 1.75, respectively.Field efficacyWe used relative salmon-louse counts after EMB treatment (i.e., the post-treatment count divided by the pre-treatment count) as our measure of EMB field resistance between 2010 and 2021 (higher relative counts imply lower treatment efficacy). We defined “pre-treatment” as one month prior to treatment and “post-treatment” as three months after treatment (roughly when one would expect to find the lowest counts in louse populations previously unexposed to EMB), as in Saksida et al.10. We excluded EMB treatments for which an additional, non-EMB treatment was performed within the following three months. In total, there were 73 EMB treatments for which we were able to calculate relative post-treatment counts.Salmon-louse counts were performed by farm staff as described by Godwin et al.27. In short, salmon-louse counts were usually performed at least one per month by capturing 20 stocked fish in each of three net pens using a box seine net, then placing the fish in an anesthetic bath of tricaine methanesulfonate (TMS, or MS-222) and assessing the fish for motile (i.e., pre-adult and adult) L. salmonis by eye.The treatment dataset included the date and type of every treatment that has been performed on a BA farm (i.e., not just the 11 farms with bioassay data). In total, 88 EMB treatments were conducted between 2010 and 2021, of which we were able to calculate relative post-treatment counts for 73 because some months lacked counts or had a non-EMB treatment performed within the following three months. An additional 22 non-EMB treatments (e.g., freshwater and hydrogen baths) were performed, all since the beginning of 2019, but we excluded these data from our analysis.To determine whether field efficacy of EMB treatments has decreased over time, we used GLM-based “hurdle models”—standard statistical descriptions used to accommodate an over-abundance of zeroes in data being analysed. A hurdle model uses two components—one model for whether a count is nonzero and another for the value of the nonzero count—to predict overall mean count. To this end, we fitted three binomial GLMs paired with three gamma GLMs to the relative-count data, each of the paired models being structurally identical in terms of predictors. All of these submodels included a binary fixed effect for previous treatment, as in the EC50 models. The null pair of submodels included no additional terms, the second pair of submodels included a fixed effect for time (i.e., the number of days since January 1, 2010), and the third pair of submodels included a quadratic effect of time (again, to account for possible first-order deviations nonlinearity). We were unable to add an effect for farm due to small sample sizes. We performed model selection of the hurdle models, again using the Akaike Information Criterion penalized for small sample sizes. The ΔAICc values for the three hurdle models were 39.6, 18.3, and 0, respectively. We performed our analyses in R 3.6.028, using the lme4 package29. More

    Misperception influence on zero-determinant strategies in iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma

    ModelsConsider an IPD game with misperception such as implementation errors and observation errors22,23,31. Due to the misperception, the parameter in the real game changes from (omega _1=[T_1,R_1,P_1,S_1]) to (omega _2=[T_2,R_2,P_2,S_2]), and only player X notices the change. Thus, player Y’s cognition of the parameter is (omega _1), while player X’s cognition of the parameter is (omega _2). In each round, player X chooses a strategy from its strategy set (Omega _X={{mathbf {p}}=[p_{cc},p_{cd},p_{dc},p_{dd}]^T|p_{xy} in [0,1],xyin {cc,cd,dc,dd}}), e.g., (p_{xy}) is player X’s probability for cooperating with given previous outcome (xyin {cc,cd,dc,dd}). Similar to (Omega _X), player Y’s strategy set is (Omega _Y={{mathbf {q}}=[q_{cc},q_{dc},q_{cd},q_{dd}]^T|q_{xy} in [0,1],xyin {cc,dc,cd,dd}}). According to Press and Dyson7, this game can be characterized by a Markov chain with a state transition matrix (M=[M_{jk}]_{4times 4}) (see “Notations” for details). Denote ({mathbf {v}}=[v_{cc},v_{cd},v_{dc},v_{dd}]^T) as a probability vector such that ({mathbf {v}}^T M={mathbf {v}}^T) and (v_{cc}+v_{cd}+v_{dc}+v_{dd}=1). Let ({mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{X}=[R_i,S_i,T_i,P_i]^T), and ({mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{Y}=[R_i,T_i,S_i,P_i]^T,) (iin {1,2}). The expected utility functions of players are as follows:$$begin{aligned} begin{aligned} u_X^{omega _i}({mathbf {p}},{mathbf {q}})={mathbf {v}} cdot {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{X}, u_Y^{omega _i}({mathbf {p}},{mathbf {q}})={mathbf {v}} cdot {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{Y},iin {1,2}. end{aligned} end{aligned}$$Denote (G_1 = {{mathbf {P}}, {varvec{Omega }}, {mathbf {u}}, omega _1}), and (G_2={{mathbf {P}},{varvec{Omega }},{mathbf {u}},omega _2}), where ({mathbf {P}}={X,Y}), ({varvec{Omega }}=Omega _Xtimes Omega _Y), and ({mathbf {u}}={u_X^{omega _i},u_Y^{omega _i}}, iin {1,2}). Thus, the actual utilities of players are obtained through (G_2), and in the view of player Y, they are playing game (G_1). In the view of player X, they are playing game (G_2) but player X knows that player Y’s cognition is (G_1). (G_1) and (G_2) are shown in Table 2.Table 2 Utility matrices in IPD games with misperception.Full size tableLet ({mathbf {p}}_0=[1,1,0,0]^T). For (iin {1,2}), ({mathbf {p}}=alpha {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{X} +beta {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_Y +gamma {mathbf {1}}+{mathbf {p}}_0), where (alpha ,beta ,gamma in {mathbb {R}}), is called a ZD strategy7 of player X in (G_i) since the strategy makes the two players’ expected utilities subjected to a linear relation:$$begin{aligned} alpha u_X^{omega _i}({mathbf {p}},{mathbf {q}})+beta u_Y^{omega _i}({mathbf {p}},{mathbf {q}})+gamma =0, end{aligned}$$for any player Y’s strategy ({mathbf {q}}). All available ZD strategies for player X in G can be expressed as (Xi (omega _i)={{mathbf {p}}in Omega _X|{mathbf {p}}=alpha {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{X} +beta {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_Y +gamma {mathbf {1}}+{mathbf {p}}_0,alpha ,beta ,gamma in {mathbb {R}} }.) Also, the three special ZD strategies are denoted as:

    (1)

    equalizer strategy7,12: ({mathbf {p}}=beta {mathbf {S}}^{omega _i}_{Y}+gamma {mathbf {1}}+{mathbf {p}}_0);

    (2)

    Based on the past experience, player Y knows that player X prefers ZD strategies, which has been widely considered in many IPD games7,9. To avoid that player Y notices the change, which may result in potential decrease of player X’s utility21 or collapse of the model28, player X keeps choosing ZD strategies according to (G_1), such that the strategy sequence matches player Y’s anticipation. To sum up, in our formulation,

    the real game is (G_2);

    player Y thinks that they are playing game (G_1), and player X thinks that they are playing game (G_2);

    player X knows that player Y’s cognition is (G_1);

    player Y believes that player X chooses ZD strategies;

    player X tends to choose a ZD strategy according to (G_1) to avoid player Y’s suspicion of misperception.

    In fact, player X can benefit from the misperception through the ZD strategy. For example, player X can adopt a generous strategy in (G_1) to not only promote player Y’s cooperation behavior, but also make player X’s utility higher than that of player Y, if the generous strategy is an extortion strategy in (G_2). A beneficial strategy for player X is able to maintain a linear relationship between players’ utilities or improve the supremum or the infimum of its utility in its own cognition. In the following, we aim to analyze player X’s implementation of a ZD strategy in IPD with misperception, and proofs are given in the Supplementary Information.Invariance of ZD strategyPlayer X’s ZD strategies may be kept in IPD games with misperception from implementation errors or observation errors. In particular, player X keeps choosing a ZD strategy ({mathbf {p}}) in (G_1) to avoid player Y’s suspicion about possible misperception. In the view of player X, it can also enforce players’ expected utilities subjected to a linear relationship if ({mathbf {p}}) is also a ZD strategy in (G_2). The following theorem provides a necessary and sufficient condition for the invariance of the linear relationship between players’ utilities.Theorem 1
    Any ZD strategy ({mathbf {p}}) of player X in (G_1) is also a ZD strategy in (G_2) if and only if$$begin{aligned} frac{R_1-P_1}{2R_1-S_1-T_1}=frac{R_2-P_2}{2R_2-S_2-T_2}. end{aligned}$$
    (1)

    If (1) holds, player X can ignore the misperception and choose an arbitrary ZD strategy based on its opponent’s anticipation since it also leads to a linear relationship between players’ utilities, as shown in Fig. 1; otherwise, player X can not unscrupulously choose ZD strategies based on player Y’s cognition. There is a player X’s ZD strategy in player Y’s cognition which is not the ZD strategy in player X’s cognition. Further, because of the symmetry of (omega _1) and (omega _2), player X’s any available ZD strategy ({mathbf {p}}) in (G_2) is also a ZD strategy in (G_1) if and only if (1) holds. It indicates that (Xi (omega _1)=Xi (omega _2)) and player X can choose any ZD strategy based on its own cognition, which does not cause suspicion of the opponent since it is also consistent with player Y’s anticipation. Additionally, the slopes of linear relations between players’ utilities may be different, as also shown in Fig. 1, and player X can benefit from the misperception by choosing a ZD strategy to improve the corresponding slope.In fact, (1) covers the following two cases:

    (1)

    (2P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), is a sufficient condition of (1). Thus, when (2P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), player X’s any ZD strategy ({mathbf {p}}) in (G_1) is also a ZD strategy in (G_2). Actually, (2P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), means that the sum of players’ utilities when players mutual defect is equal to that when only one player chooses defective strategies.

    (2)

    (R_i+P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), is another sufficient condition of (1). Thus, when (R_i+P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), player X’s any ZD strategy ({mathbf {p}}) in (G_1) is also a ZD strategy in (G_2). Actually, (R_i+P_i=T_i+S_i), (iin {1,2}), means that the game has a balanced structure in utilities32. At this point, the relationship between cooperation rate and efficiency is monotonous, i.e., the higher the cooperation rate of both sides, the greater the efficiency (the sum of players’ utilities).

    Furthermore, for the three special ZD strategies, player X can also maintain a linear relationship between players’ utilities in the IPD game with misperception.Figure 1Player X can also enforce a linear relationship between players’ utilities in its own cognition. Let (omega _1=[T,R_1,P_1,S]=[5,3,1,0]) and (omega _2=[T,R_2,P_2,S]=[5,frac{23}{7},frac{1}{7},0]), which satisfy (1). Consider that player X chooses two different ZD strategies in (a) and (b), respectively, and the red lines describe the relationships between players’ utilities in (G_1). We randomly generate 100 player Y’s strategies, and blue circles are ((u^{omega _2}_X,u^{omega _2}_Y)), correspondingly. Notice that blue circles are indeed on a cyan line in both (a) and (b).Full size imageEqualizer strategyBy choosing equalizer strategies according to player Y’s cognition, player X can unilaterally set player Y’s utilities, as shown in the following corollary.
    Corollary 1
    Player X’s any equalizer strategy ({mathbf {p}}) in (G_1) is also an equalizer strategy in (G_2) if and only if$$begin{aligned} frac{R_1-P_1}{R_2-P_2}=frac{R_1-T_1}{R_2-T_2}=frac{R_1-S_1}{R_2-S_2}. end{aligned}$$
    (2)

    (2) is also a sufficient condition of (1). If (2) holds, player X can unilaterally set player Y’s utility by choosing any equalizer strategy in (G_1) even though they have different cognitions; otherwise, player X can not unscrupulously choose an equalizer strategy based on player Y’s cognition since it may not be an equalizer strategy in player X’s cognition.Extortion strategyBy choosing extortion strategies according to player Y’s cognition, player X can get an extortionate share, as shown in the following corollary.
    Corollary 2
    For player X’s extortion strategy ({mathbf {p}}) with extortion factor (chi >1) in (G_1), ({mathbf {p}}) is also an extortion strategy in (G_2) if (1) and the following inequality hold:$$begin{aligned} begin{aligned} (S_1-P_1)(R_2-P_2)-(R_1-P_1)(T_2-P_2)-chi ((T_1-P_1)(R_2-P_2)-(R_1-P_1)(T_2-P_2))1) in (G_1), ({mathbf {p}}) is also a generous strategy in (G_2) if (1) and the following inequality hold:$$begin{aligned} begin{aligned}(S_1-R_1)(R_2-P_2)-(R_1-P_1)(T_2-R_2)-chi ((T_1-R_1)(R_2-P_2)-(R_1-P_1)(T_2-R_2))b^1_i, iin {1,2}, end{aligned} end{aligned}$$
    (5)
    where (a^1_i) and (b^1_i,iin {1,2}) are parameters shown in “Notations”.
    Actually, when player Y chooses the always cooperate (ALLC) strategy35, i.e., ({mathbf {q}}=[1,1,1,1]^T), player X gets the supremum of the expected utility in (G_1) and player X’s utility is improved in the IPD game with misperception.Figure 4Player X can use either equalizer strategies and extortion strategies to raise the supremum of its expected utility or generous strategies to raise the infimum of its expected utility. (a) and (b) consider that (omega _1=[T,R_1,P,S]) and (omega _2=[T,R_2,P,S]), where (R_1ne R_2); (c) considers that (omega _1=[T,R,P_1,S]) and (omega _2=[T,R,P_2,S]), where (P_1ne P_2). The red lines in (a), (b), and (c) describe utilities’ relationships when player X chooses an equalizer strategy, an extortion strategy, and a generous strategy in (G_1), respectively; The yellow area contains all possible relationships between players’ utilities in (G_2) if player X does not change its strategy. In (a) and (b), r is the supremum of player X’s utility in (G_1), and (r’) is lower than the supremum of player X’s utility in (G_2); In (c), l is the infimum of player X’s utility in (G_1), and (l’) is lower than the infimum of player X’s utility in (G_2).Full size imageExtortion strategyBy choosing extortion strategies according to player Y’s cognition, player X can also improve the supremum of its expected utility.
    Corollary 5
    For player X’s extortion strategy ({mathbf {p}}) with extortion factor (chi >1) in (G_1), the supremum of player X’s expected utility in (G_2) is larger than that in (G_1) if$$begin{aligned} begin{aligned}a^2_ichi ^2+b^2_ichi +c^2_i1), the infimum of player X’s expected utility in (G_2) is larger than that in (G_1) if$$begin{aligned} begin{aligned}a^3_ichi ^2+b^3_ichi +c^3_i More
