Abstract
AbstractWe discuss a variant, named ‘Rattle’, of the product replacement algorithm. Rattle is a Markov chain, that returns a random element of a black box group. The limiting distribution of the element returned is the uniform distribution. We prove that, if the generating sequence is long enough, the probability distribution of the element returned converges unexpectedly quickly to the uniform distribution.
