Transfers by force and deception lead to stability in an evolutionary learning process when controlled by net profit but not by turnover

Abstract

An evolutionary process is characterized by heritable variation through random mutation, positive selection of the fittest, and random genetic drift. A learning process can be similarly organized and does not need insight or understanding. Instructions are changed randomly, evaluated, and better instructions are propagated. While evolution of an enzyme or a company is a long-lasting process (change of hardware) learning is a fast process (change of software). In my model the basic ensemble consists of a source and a sink. Both have saturating benefit functions (b) and linear cost functions (c). In cost domination (b-c 0) sink takes it - both at free will - thus creating a basic superadditivity. It is not reasonable to give when b-c>0 or take when b-c
