Beginning with the historical background of probability theory, this thoroughly revised text examines all important aspects of mathematical probability - including random variables, probability distributions, characteristic and generating functions, stochatic convergence, and limit theorems - and provides an introduction to various types of statistical problems, covering the broad range of statistical inference., Requiring a prerequisite in ca...

In applied and pure sciences, the structural properties of groups are increasingly utilised to find better solutions in statistical sciences. Modern computers make statistical methods with large numbers of variables feasible. Invariance is a mathematical term for symmetry, and many statistical problems exhibit such properties. In statistical analysis with large numbers of variables, the invariance approach is becoming increasingly popular and ...

Nanoscale science and technology have occupied centre stage globally in modern scientific research and discourses in the early twenty first century. The enabling nature of the technology makes it important in modern electronics, computing, materials, healthcare, energy and the environment. This volume contains selected articles presented (as Invited/Oral/Poster presentations) at the 2nd international conference on advanced materials and nanote...

Bat comes among the least studied and highly misunderstood animal, regarded as evil spirit or omen in Mesoamerican, Oaxcan and East Nigerean mythology, unlike depicted as Fu-Shing (symbology of god of happiness) in Chinese Culture. Several of the bat species are enlisted in various category of CITES and IUCN Red Data Book, unlike in Nepal Wildlife legislation where its status is unclear. This research paper jostles the various important issues...

Money demand elasticities have been considered as critical inputs to regulate the conduct of monetary policy. A stable demand function for money further has been regarded as essential condition for the viability of monetary policy. Hence, demand for money has been subjected to extensive empirical scrutiny in many countries over the years. The issue assumes importance in the context of an economy experiencing financial innovation, deregulation ...

Methanotrophic bacteria are ubiquitous group of microbes utilizing methane as a sole source of carbon and energy. They reside in top aerobic zone of soil and utilize atmospheric as well as endogenous methane produced from anaerobic zone in the deep soil. Methane consumption ability of soil is supposed to be directly related to the number of methanotrophic bacterial population size. Tropical dry deciduous forests of Vindhyan region, a strong me...

In this work, the author issues a call for scholars of contemporary social history and practice to grapple with late modernity's most pressing social and political issues. He counterposes Western thought with Indian social theory across an array of Indian texts and ideas.

In this intriguing new book, Indian social theorist Ananta Kumar Giri issues a stirring call for scholars of contemporary social theory and practice to grapple with late modernity's most pressing social and political issues. Giri counterposes Western thought with Indian social theory in a work that ranges across an array of Indian texts and ideas, hitherto ignored by Western scholarship. Included, along with the mainstays of Indian intellectua...

In this work, we study the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the continuous coagulation and multiple fragmentation equations for large classes of kernels. A brief mathematical survey on the well-posedness of the equations under binary fragmentation is given. Later, a uniqueness theorem is proved for mass conserving solutions to the continuous coagulation and binary fragmentation equation under strong fragmentation. Furthermore, we ...

The Indian Sundarbans at the apex of Bay of Bengal is basically a deltaic complex and a diversified coastal wetland, harbors a luxuriant biodiversity and acts as a potential refuge of living marine resources. Sundarban has been in the limelight ever since the global community became concerned about the need for Biodiversity conservation, global warming and climate change. This book is intended to covers a wide range of topics, from the environ...

Human liberation has become an epochal challenge in today's world, requiring not only emancipation from oppressive structures but also from the oppressive self. It is a multidimensional struggle and aspiration in which knowledge - self, social and spiritual - can play a transformative role. 'Knowledge and Human Liberation: Towards Planetary Realizations' undertakes such a journey of transformation, and seeks to rethink knowledge vis-à-vis the ...

In the wondrous state of West Bengal in the district of South 24 Parganas lies the spectacular spot of Diamond Harbour at the mouth of the river Hoogly. The holiday destination of Diamond Harbour is at a distance of Forty - Eight [48] kilometers from the Calcutta in the South Direction. The Diamond Harbour was named so by the British of rather renamed as Diamond Harbour by them was earlier the spot known as Hajipur. The Diamond Harbour is a tu...

Howrah district is one of the highly urbanized area of West Bengal. The urbanized sectors gradually increase the slum populations. The Howrah city called "Glasgow" of India. The small and medium industrial sectors attracted population from the different parts of the West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa etc. According to 2001 census, the total area of 'Howrah Municipal Corporation' is 51.70 sq. k.m and the total population is 1007532.

The Mangrove species include Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Avicennia alba, Ceriops tagal and Rhizophora apiculata. 25 species of mangroves, 120 species of algae and 124 species of Angiosperms are found here. The rare species of plants found here are Nypa fruiticans (Nipah palm), Sonneratia Alba (Mangrove apple), Acanthus volubilis (Acanth...

Asana: The Third Limb of Asht (eight) anga (limbs) Yoga Asana in modern yoga has become a synonym for Yoga. Most yoga followers are practising kriyas in the form of Suriya-namaskar or vinyasa and asana as a physical workout for many benefits like keeping fit, gaining flexibility, feeling good, being strong, looking attractive and enhancing vital energy. There is nothing wrong in that as we all need a healthy and strong body to begin. Swami...

Nanotechnology is one of the key technologies of twenty first century. It involves engineering with materials that have size dimension in nanometer range. As important biological entities like virus, pores of biological membranes, proteins, etc also share their sizes in the nanometer ranges, there has been an extensive application of nanotechnology in biology and biomedicine. Nanomaterial based drug delivery offers one of the most useful techn...

The work developed in this thesis addresses very important and relevant issues of accretion processes around black holes. Beginning by studying the time variation of the evolution of inviscid accretion discs around black holes, and their properties, the author investigates the change of the pattern of the flows when the strength of the shear viscosity is varied and cooling is introduced. He succeeds to verify theoretical predictions of the so ...
