The Prisoner’s Dilemma on Static Complex Networks

The PD game has been frequently used when trying to model the emergence of cooperative behavior in a social or biological system. The questions of why and how cooperation arises and survives in an environment where it is clearly more expensive for the individual than defection in the short term have been subject of intense research for quite some time, and the PD turned out to be a very useful tool for this aim.
