Resumen:
In thesedifficultdays, we are listening in media terms as exponentialgrowth, reproductionrate, and so. These are termslinkedwiththestudy of populationgrowth, spread of diseases and relatedareas. In thistalkwewillfocusonthemathematicalmodelsused in epidemiology, mainly in Kermack and McKendrick' SIR model and some of itsvariants, from a mathematicalpoint of view. Amongthedifferenttechniquescommonlyused in thestudy of epidemics, wewilltreatdeterministicmodels, basedondynamicalsystemstheory. Wewillpresentthemainmathematicaltoolsthatwewillneed. Thetalkwill be as self-contained as possible, no prerequisitesneeded.
