    Part of a larger discussion

    Challenges→Under replicator dynamics, strictly dominated strategies can persist in a population.

    The philosophically substantive claim about replicator dynamics concerns trajectories from mixed initial conditions, where Weibull's formal results confirm strictly dominated strategies are eliminated with probability one.

    Key Terms

    Eliminated with probability one(describing what happens to bad strategies over time)
    A mathematical way of saying something will definitely disappear or fail—there's essentially no chance it will survive.
    Mixed initial conditions(describing what the statement is analyzing)
    A starting situation where multiple different strategies or types exist together in a population, rather than just one type being present.
    Strictly dominated strategies(the type of strategy that gets eliminated in replicator dynamics)
    A strategy or approach that is worse than another option in every possible situation, so there's no good reason to ever use it.
    Weibull(the researcher whose work is being cited)
    A mathematician (Jörgen Weibull) who developed formal mathematical theorems about how populations behave when different strategies compete with each other.

    trajectories(as used in physics and philosophy)
    The paths that objects follow through space over time, like the arc of a thrown ball.
