Mathematical models of romance

Rinaldi Sergio applies classical mathematics to the evolution of romantic relationships, framing love dynamics through models that begin with indifference and describe movement toward a romantic relationship. The book combines theoretical chapters on pairings shaped by different psychological traits with case studies drawn from classical poems and internationally known films. Its organizing idea is to treat love stories as subjects for formal modeling, bringing mathematical analysis into conversation with love psychology and familiar works of art.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in mathematical approaches to human relationships
  • Those curious about how psychology can be represented through formal models
  • Readers who enjoy case studies drawn from poetry and film

Book overview

This book shows, for the very first time, how love stories -- a vital issue in our lives -- can be tentatively described with classical mathematics. Focus is on the derivation and analysis of reliable models that allow one to formally describe the expected evolution of love affairs from the initial state of indifference to the final romantic regime. The models are in full agreement with the basic philosophical principles of love psychology. Eight chapters are theoretically oriented and discuss the romantic relationships between important classes of individuals identified by particular psychological traits. The remaining chapters are devoted to case studies described in classical poems or in worldwide famous films.
