Biosketch of George Haller

   Detailed CV of George Haller George Haller received his Ph.D. in Applied Mechanics at the California Institute of Technology. He then spent a year as postdoc at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University, prior to joining the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University as Assistant Professor in 1994. In 2001, he left Brown University as Associate Professor to join the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he became Professor in 2005. While still a professor at MIT, he became the first director of Morgan Stanley's Mathematical Modeling Center in Budapest, which he headed for three years. He then joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University in 2009, serving as Department Chair till 2011. Over the period 2014-2018, he headed the Institute for Mechanical Systems at ETH Zurich, where he currently holds the Chair in Nonlinear Dynamics.

Professor Haller has served on the editorial boards of the ASME Journal of Applied Mechanics, the SIAM Journal for Mathematical Analysis, the Journal of Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems, and the Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Physik (ZAMP). He is currently a Senior Editor of the Journal of Nonlinear Science, the Feature Editor of Nonlinear Dynamics, and an Editorial Advisory Board Member of Chaos. His honors include a Manning Assistant Professorship at Brown University, an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship in Mathematics, an Albert Szent-Gyorgyi Fellowship, an ASME Thomas J.R. Hughes Young Investigator Award, an Honorary Doctorate from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, a Faculty of Engineering Distinguished Professorship at McGill University, a Midwest Mechanics Lectureship and the Stanley Corrsin Award of the American Physical Society (APS). He is an elected external member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He is also elected Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AIAA). He is the author of three monographs: "Chaos Near Resonance" (Springer, 2000), "Transport Barriers and Coherent Structures" (Cambridge, 2023) and "Nonlinear Spectral Model Reduction for Equations and Data – with applications to solids, fluids and controls" (2025, to appear).
