On the characterization of isotropic Gaussian fields on homogeneous spaces of compact groups. (English) Zbl 1128.60039

Summary: Let \(T\) be a random field weakly invariant under the action of a compact group \(G\). We give conditions ensuring that the independence of the random Fourier coefficients is equivalent to Gaussianity. As a consequence, in general it is not possible to simulate a non-Gaussian invariant random field through its Fourier expansion using independent coefficients.
