Resumen
Las matemáticas aplicadas forman parte de la formación universitaria en pregrado y posgrado. Desde esta perspectiva este ensayo tiene como objetivo estudiar los efectos psicológicos, económicos y educativos ocasionados sobre la población por un escenario de crisis como el COVID-19. Las teorías matemáticas desarrolladas en este ensayo son: Teoría del Caos, Cadenas de Markov y Teoría de Nash. El COVID-19 se ha extendido a través del mundo, afectando poblaciones y países, sin distinción de raza, posición económica, política o sociocultural. El impacto que el COVID-19 ha causado en la población mundial se podrá medir, a mediano y largo plazo, a través de cambios en el comportamiento psicológico, hábitos sociales, de salud, económicos y educativos. Este impacto dejará profundas huellas y dilemas morales como priorizar qué áreas deben atenderse y cuál será el esfuerzo político dirigido a cada una de ellas.
