摘要
The replicator equation for a two-person symmetric game, which has an interval of the real line as strategy space, is extended with a mutation term. Assuming that the distribution of the strategies has a continuous density, a partial differential equation for this density is derived. The equation is analysed for two examples. A connection is made with the canonical equation from adaptive dynamics and the continuous stable strategy criterion.
