Testing for uniformity on a compact homogeneous space

This paper applies the invariance principle to the problem of testing a distribution on a compact homogeneous space for uniformity. The notion of using a reduction by invariance in such a situation is due to Ajne[1], who considers tests invariant under rotation on a circle. In his paper, he derives the distribution of the maximal invariant and gives the general form of the most powerful invariant test for uniformity on the circle.
