This book provides a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of real-life scientific problems which encounter non-linear data. The authors first present methods for developing distributions on a circle. Then, they proceed to show how such methods are generalized for other manifolds. They also consider new methods peculiar to certain other manifolds, like disc and hyperdisc. The organization of the book develops the methods from the beginning for a simple manifold, letting the reader appreciate how these unfold and generalize to more complicated manifolds. Next, rather than separately treating one distribution at a time, the authors develop the generalizations of the methods of derivations. Finally, new distributions are presented as outcomes of these generalizations. The authors also provide several real-life examples, which not only attest to the ongoing usefulness, but will also help the reader visualize other modern day areas of the applications of these important distributions.

This book revisits Hans-Thies Lehmann’s theory of the postdramatic and participates in the ongoing debate on the theatre paradigm by placing contemporary Indian performance within it. None of the Indian theatre-makers under study built their works directly on the Euro-American model of postdramatic theatre, but many have used its vocabulary and apparatus in innovative, transnational ways. Their principal aim was to invigorate the language of Indian urban theatre, which had turned stale under the stronghold of realism inherited from colonial stage practice or prescriptive under the decolonizing drive of the ‘theatre of roots’ movement after independence. Emerging out of a set of different historical and cultural contexts, their productions have eventually expanded and diversified the postdramatic framework by crosspollinating it with regional performance forms. Theatre in India today includes devised performance, storytelling across forms, theatre solos, cross-media performance, theatre installations, scenographic theatre, theatre-as-event, reality theatre, and so on. The book balances theory, context and praxis, developing a new area of scholarship in Indian theatre. Interspersed throughout are Indian theatre-makers' clarifications of their own practices vis-à-vis those in Europe and the US.

None of the Indian theatre-makers consciously built their works on the Euro-American model of the postdramatic, but many have used the theatre model in innovative, transnational ways. Essentially, they have adapted an originally European theatre paradigm to a different historical context and added new dimensions to it by cross-pollinating it with indigenous cultural forms.The main aim in doing so has been to invigorate the language of Indian urban theatre that had turned stale under the stronghold of realism growing out of colonial stage practice and homogeneous under the decolonizing drive of the ‘theatre of roots’ movement post-independence.Theatre in India today is rich in cross-media performance, theatre solos and monologues, pure spatial experience, plurimedial work, durational reading, real-time action, and so on.The book balances theory, contextualisation and praxis, building a hitherto non-existing archive of scholarship in Indian theatre within a postdramatic framework, and an argument for its place within contemporary Indian theatre. Interspersed throughout are Indian theatre-makers’ opinions about their contemporary performance theory and practices vis-a-vis those in Europe and the US.

This volume redefines the radical by exploring a range of contemporary theatre and performance produced in response to the politico-cultural climate of 21st-century India. Offering a critique of dominant power structures in India, this book showcases how the rise in censorship and intolerance of dissent has brought forth new forms of political and aesthetic radicalism. Theatre has found many ways to perform the radical as a form of resistance, intersecting with other art forms as well as the political itself in its performative articulations. Chapters include discussions of the performance of protest; creation of an alternative worldview through indigenous rituals and cultural festivals; world-making through transformative encounters; devised plays and documentary theatre as tools of dissent; radical imperatives of care in animated videos and short films; scenography and the actor’s body as sites of resistance, the performance of faith as survival in a hostile world and conversations with artists. The radical in contemporary Indian theatre and performance is shown to lie in creating a new ‘transgressive aesthetic,’ often formally hybrid, to project alternative perspectives and possibilities.Balancing theory, context and performance analysis, this volume brings out an underexplored aspect of 21st-century Indian theatre and performance. Through its focus on different iterations of the radical in a democratic society and performance, it articulates theatre’s ability to disrupt the status quo and reveal the possibilities of change.

Islam in Performance brings together six contemporary plays from Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan that highlight the political performance of Islam in South Asia, especially since the 1947 partition of the subcontinent. The plays invite comparison with one another, engaging with the issue from perspectives of the three countries concerned: Hindutva politics in India othering the Muslim population for electoral gains, radical Islamization of Pakistan paralyzing political governance and encouraging jihadi violence, and the ever-increasing Islamist threat to Bangladesh’s founding secular ethos. Finally, this anthology focuses on the suffering such exclusionary politics of religious nationalism has piled upon minorities across the region. Widely performed but largely unpublished, the plays with their geographic and stylistic range provide a good spectrum of some of the best writing in contemporary South Asian drama. The editor’s scholarly introduction offers a framework for studying the plays as both texts and performance pieces.

This book of selected works exhibits a significant part of Carlos A. Coelho’s research activity in multivariate statistics, focusing on topics related to likelihood ratio tests. After two introductory chapters, including a biography and an overview of the contributions and related research, the articles are presented in their chronological order of publication, thus also showing the research path followed by the author. The volume shows how likelihood ratio tests useful in multivariate analysis can be developed, and how in most cases exact distributions can be obtained for their statistics in a manageable form. Furthermore, it shows how extremely sharp asymptotic (near-exact) approximations can be found in the remaining cases. Circular distributions are also addressed and, more generally, distributions of products of random variables. The book will be useful for advanced students as well as researchers and practitioners who deal with likelihood ratio tests in multivariate analysis.
