Figure 5

Distribution of strategies in officer’s (top panels) and citizen’s (bottom panels) population over time as the degree of the citizen’s network is increased from (a) CN = 2 to (b) CN = 4, (c) CN = 6, (d) CN = 20 (e) CN = 50. Population is embedded on a regular linear chain network topology. Each figure in the panel is a result of a single simulation for a fixed parameter set initialized with equal number of different strategy players distributed randomly over their respective networks. X-axis represents the distribution of strategies of players at a particular time. Y-axis (downward direction) is the time axis. Black and white colors represent corrupt and honest officers respectively. Green, blue and red colors are for citizens who pay silently (C1), pay & complain (C2) and refuse to pay (C3) respectively. The values of the parameters for the simulation is v = 1, c = 1, po = 2, pc = 0, b = 0.70,t = 0.70, r = b, NO = 100, NC = 100, ON = 2, IN = 1.
