I checked my notes for the anaytical calculations and the complete
formulae are
V_A(x)=0.5*(1-f)*sqrt(r_i * r_m)*exp(-x/l2)+0.5*f*sqrt(r_i*r_m)
*sqrt((1+beta)/beta)*exp(-x/l1)
and
V_B(x)=-0.5*f*sqrt(r_i*r_m)*exp(-x/l2)+0.5*f*sqrt(r_i*r_m)
*sqrt((1+beta)/beta)*exp(-x/l1)
where l1 and l2 are as listed in the paper. For plotting 2b, i divided
both these expressions by V_A(0) and this leads to amplitudes of 0.8207
and -0.1791, for V_B(x) (with f=0.5; 2 neurons), very close to your
answers (perhaps a rounding error ?).
