Let P be a probability on a finite group G, P(n)=P∗…∗P (n times) be an n-fold convolution of P. If n→∞, then under mild conditions P(n) converges to the uniform probability U(g)=1|G| (g∈G). We study the case when the sequence P(n) reaches its limit U after finite number of steps: P(k)=P(k+1)=⋯=U for...
