Abstract

We propose in this paper two methods for generating both an NT-net (see below) and the uniform distribution on a Stiefel manifold O(n,m), where O(n,m) ={H : H is an n×m matrix and H′H =Im}. One method is based on the Householder transform while another is based on the Givens transform. Some applications of these two algorithms are presented and some numerical comparisons among these methods are given also.
