Algorithms based on rapidly mixing Markov chains are discussed to produce nearly uniformly distributed random elements in abelian groups of finite order. Let A be an abelian group generated by set S . Then one can generate ϵ‐nearly uniform random elements of A using 4| S |log(| A |/ϵ) log(| A |) additions and the same number of random bits. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 2005
