Research
Areas
Jerrold Marsden is a professor of
Control and Dynamical Systems at Caltech.
He has done extensive research in the area of geometric mechanics, with
applications to rigid body systems, fluid mechanics, elasticity theory,
plasma physics, as well as to general field theory. His work in
dynamical systems and control theory emphasizes how it relates to
mechanical systems and systems with symmetry. He is one of the
original founders in the early 1970's of reduction theory for
mechanical systems with symmetry, which remains an active and much
studied area of research today.
