The author studies geometrically the Euler-Arnold equations associated to geodesic flow on \(\text{SO}(3)\) for a left-invariant diagonal metric. A Lie algebra theoretical approach based on the Konstant-Kirillov coadjoint action was given. By the asymptotic analysis, the author shows that the linearization of the Euler-Arnold equations occurs on a related Prym variety.
