Abstract:	"This paper uses game theory to address male-male competition for mates. In evolutionary game theory, mating phenotypes are treated as alternative strategies... "The chief theoretical novelty of this paper is the formalization of a class of games called conditional. A game is conditional when the payoff matrix varies systematically with conditions in the environment, even though the strategies available to the players do not..."
