Story Let's Visualize this R J NOTE R > 0 : Love R < 0 : Hate Love at first side Both in love R start disliking J still love him But R start hating J is NOT in love R hates J They hate each other J hates R And R is indifferent to J R begin to express love BUT J continue to dislike R Romeo is fickle lover . The more Juliet loves him the more he begin to dislike her. But when she loses interest his feelings for her warmup . She on the other hand tends to echo him.
Mathematical Modeling 1 Solution Conclusion Feelings of R and J are periodic in nature . The sad outcome of their affairs is of never-ending cycle of LOVE and HATE R J
Mathematical modeling 2 a, b > 0 Eager-Beaver ( Romeo is encouraged both by his own feelings and by Juliet’s.) a> 0 , b< 0 Narcissistic ( Romeo is encouraged by his own feelings , but responds negatively to Juliet’s. ) a< 0 , b> 0 Cautious Lover ( Romeo is discouraged by his own feelings but responds positively to Juliet’s.) a, b< 0 Hermit ( Romeo is discouraged both by his own feelings as well as Juliet’s. ) Fire and Ice situation c=-b & d=-a Never Ending situation a=d=0 & bc <0
Case 1 : |a|>|b| Eigen values : Real unequal with different signs. Nature of critical point (0,0) : Saddle point Stability : unstable If a>b>0 (0,0) critical point = unstable emotional state Mathematical description = real-life emotional dynamics Romeo = Eiger Beaver, Juliet = Hermit Exponential solution = emotions align along V2 over time Phase portrait shows transition from love to dislike or hate to love, reflecting hyperbolic, unstable critical point, symbolizing dynamic relationship as " Fire and Ice ".
Case 1 : |a|>|b| Eigen values : Real unequal with different signs. Nature of critical point (0,0) : Saddle point Stability : unstable If a>0>b
Case 2 : |b|>|a| Eigen values : Purely Imaginary Nature of critical point (0,0) : Centre Stability : Stable BUT not asymptotically If b>a>0 Solution: Rotated ellipse centered at (0,0) Initial emotional states don't matter Emotions cycle between affection and disdain Trajectory resembles a roller coaster ride Cyclic return to initial states perpetuates indefinitely, termed " Eternal Oscillation of Affection "
Case 2 : |b|>|a| Eigen values : Purely Imaginary Nature of critical point (0,0) : Centre Stability : Stable BUT not asymptotically If b>0>a
Summary
Mathematical Modeling 2 The above model doesn’t consider the effect of learning , adaptation and synergism after living together . Hence emotion may vary; we assume that it proportional to RJ. Summary Model assumptions lead to positive linear behavior Model exhibits remarkable properties aligned with common understanding Individual behavior influences community structure Main conclusion: Individual appeal drives order within the community
