Abstract:

In this paper we give a short proof of the existence of uniformly distributed sequences in separable locally compact groups, a result first stated by Benzinger [1]. The existence of u.d. sequences in separable compact groups was proved by Veech [7] whose results also imply the above result. We also prove the existence of well-distributed sequences.
