Slobodan Simić

Slobodan Simić is Professor of Mathematics at San José State University's Department of Mathematics and Statistics. His research specializes in dynamical systems, differential geometry, and mathematical physics, particularly geometric aspects of Anosov flows and subriemannian structures. PhD dissertation completed under Charles Pugh at UC Berkeley (1995), with postdoctoral positions at University of Illinois-Chicago, USC, and UC Berkeley's Department of Electrical Engineering.

Publications focus on contact Anosov flows, global cross sections, Oseledets regularity, and geometric control theory. Recent work establishes connections between topological dynamics and geometric mechanics. Teaches courses including linear algebra (Math 33A) and differential equations (Math 234). Maintains active research profile with ongoing investigations in smooth ergodic theory and Riemannian geometry applications.
