This web page allows you to solve the system of
differential equations created by Sergio Rinaldi
to model the dynamics of unrequited love between the poet Petrarch
and his muse Laura
("Laura and Petrarch: An Intriguing Case of Cyclical Love
Dynamics", SIAM J. Appl. Math, Vol. 58, No. 4, pp. 1205-1221, August 1998).
The equations solved here are given in equations (6), (7) and (8)
on page 1210 of the paper.
The default parameter values are given on page 1212 of the paper.
With these parameters, the solution plotted here recreates the upper plot
of Figure 3 in the paper (page 1214).
