Let be a locally compact non-compact metric group. Assuming that is abelian we construct symmetric aperiodic random walks on with probabilities n ( S 2 n V ) of return to any neighborhood V of the neutral element decaying at infinity almost as fast as the exponential function n ↦ exp(-n). We also show that for some discrete groups , the decay of the function n ( S 2 n V ) can be made as slow as possible by choosing appropriate aperiodic random walks Sₙ on .
