Speaker: Youcef Mammeri (Université de Picardie Jules Verne).

We all have to deal with the coronavirus epidemic. Many strategies have been put in place to try to contain the disease, with varying success. I will present an SIR-type mathematical model to predict the state of the epidemic. The effect of distancing, isolation of exposed individuals and treatment of symptoms will be compared. I will begin with a simple explanation of SIR models, then discuss a PDE model and its resolution.

The Lisbon Webinar in Analysis in Differential Equations is a joint iniciative of CAMGSD, CMAFcIO and GFM, three research centers of the University of Lisbon. It is aimed at filling the absence of face-to-face seminars and wishes to be a meeting point of mathematicians working in the field.

14h30-15h30
