Politics as a Galaxy: Public Opinion Obeys Physics ⚡ экспресс
Original: "A quantum-like model of political consensus via non self-adjoint Hamiltonians"
Quantum math helped model how government support rises and falls over time.

It turns out that governments and galaxies share invisible forces: the fluctuations in support of millions can be calculated, like the movement of dark matter, using quantum equations. Physicists have found a way to predict the rise and fall of a coalition's ratings without any polling.
🎯 It turns out that the math of quantum mechanics can catch the very moment when public opinion is about to shift dramatically—before analysts even notice.
🎬 A similar idea underlies psychohistory from Isaac Asimov's Foundation series—where math predicted the fate of galactic empires.
