Both are cooperation dilemmas with free-riding. Public goods game vs shared resource cleaning problem. Multi-stability and behavioral feedback in both.
Reciprocal group dynamics and behavioral inertia drive cooperation levels in groups. Cooperation depends on observed group behavior patterns rather than the identity of participants. These normative mechanisms operate identically regardless of agent type, creating stable cooperation patterns through behavioral feedback.
view paper→Shared resource use creates a cooperation dilemma with cleaning costs, contamination risk, and social incentives forming competing pressures. Cleaning cost primarily determines stability of altruistic behavior. The system exhibits multi-stability and hysteresis - small parameter changes can cause abrupt shifts between cooperation and free-riding equilibria.
