Damping in quantum love affairs

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2011, vol. 390, issue 15, 2803-2811

Abstract: In a series of recent papers we have used an operatorial technique to describe stock markets and, in a different context, love affairs and their time evolutions. The strategy proposed so far does not allow any dumping effect. In this short note we show how, within the same framework, a strictly non-periodic or quasi-periodic effect can be introduced in the model by describing in some details a linear Alice–Bob love relation with damping.
