Abstract

In this paper, we study a heterogeneous donation game in geographical small-world networks. Cooperators provide benefits to their neighbors at some costs. Defectors pay no cost and do not distribute any benefits. The total contribution of a cooperator is fixed and he/she distributes his/her contribution unevenly to his/her neighbors. The amount that a cooperator contributes to a neighbor depends on their geographical distance. Our results show that, the cooperation level reaches the highest when cooperators give distant neighbors more help, but only to a certain extent. We analyze the time evolution of cooperator clusters and the length of cooperative links. Besides, we study the effects of the density of shortcuts on cooperation.
