Brief project description: We will develop a basic framework of Stackelberg evolutionary games for cancer treatment, based on the initial work by Staňková, Brown, Dubbeldam et al. This involves analysis of equilibria in these games (thus ESS among cancer cells as followers in this game and Stackelberg equilibria between the physician as the leader and cancer cells as followers) but also their transient dynamics and other dynamical properties. Moreover, specific instances of these games will be designed to analyse treatment in specific cancers, with patient data from ongoing trials as an input.
