The math I do. These days I mostly work on the
N-body problem. I was trained in geometric mechanics.
Work on geometric phases led me to the falling cat problem
which led to subRiemannian geometry, control theory,
and eventually to the three-body problem.
I continue work from time-to-time in these other areas.
