Douglas N. Arnold
McKnight Presidential Professor of Mathematics
School of Mathematics, University of Minnesota
I am a mathematician and educator. My research mostly concerns
numerical analysis, partial differential equations, mechanics, and the interplay
between these fields. Much of my recent effort has been directed toward the
development of the finite element exterior calculus. I am immediate past
president of SIAM, the
largest applied mathematics and computational science professional organization in
the world, having served as president in 2009–10. From 2001 to 2008 I directed the IMA,
the world's leading interdisciplinary mathematical research institute.
