Figure 2

Effect of mobility on dynamics.

(a) Typical snapshots of spatial patterns of five species competition game for different values of the mobility M. Each color represents one of the five species and white denotes empty sites. The system size is N = 1000 × 1000. (b) Extinction probabilities Pext of the 5 and 3 species states as a function of M, represented by the solid and open symbols, respectively, for systems of sizes N = 50 × 50 (red circles), 100 × 100 (blue triangles), 150 × 150 (green diamonds) and 200 × 200 (violet squares). The thick solid curve is theoretical estimation of the extinction probability from the five species coexistence state in the thermodynamic limit (i.e., N → ∞) through an equivalent dynamical model based on spiral or group interaction at the mesoscopic level.
