In game theory an evolutionarily stable set (sometimes evolutionary stable sets) (ES set) is a set of strategies, which score equally against each other, each of which would be an evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) were it not for the other members of the set. ES sets were first defined by Thomas (1985ab)[1]
