Beyond the brain: towards a mathematical modeling of emotions
B. Ambrosio

TL;DR
This paper proposes a novel mathematical framework to describe and quantify human emotions by modeling them as electromagnetic-like waves, offering a new scientific approach to understanding feelings beyond physiological measures.
Contribution
It introduces the first mathematical model of emotions based on electromagnetic wave analogies, bridging physics and psychology in a new way.
Findings
Mathematical descriptions of emotional intensity and nature.
A novel approach to quantify feelings and cognition.
Potential applications in understanding mind and behavior.
Abstract
Emotions are a central key for understanding human beings and of fundamental importance regarding their impact in human and animal behaviors. They have been for a long time a subject of study for various scholars including in particular philosophers and mystics. In modern science, the emotional phenomenon has attracted for a few decades an increasing number of studies, notably in the fields of Psychology, Psychiatry, Neuroscience and Biochemistry. However, since our perception of emotions is not, so far, directly detectable nor recordable by our measure instruments, Physics and Mathematics have not been so far used academically to provide a precise description of the phenomenon of feeling an emotion. Relying upon the works of O. Elahi and on the hypothesis that the human soul and its psyche may manifest in ourselves (in both conscious and unconscious manner) in an analog way as…
