Abstract

By means of sequences of random variables of controlled growth, that is, either rapidly decreasing or slowly increasing, we define a space of random tempered generalized functions—of Schwartz type—on a locally compact abelian separable group, and we characterize the set of those generalized functions that have a mean. We show that this approach covers both the case of the torus and the real line case and also allows us to define tempered random distributions over the Cantor set by means of the associated Cantor group.
