- We develop an efficient algorithm for sampling the eigenvalues of random matrices distributed according to the Haar measure over the orthogonal or unitary group. Our technique samples directly a factorization of the Hessenberg form of such matrices, and then computes their eigenvalues with a tailored core-chasing algorithm. This approach requires a number of floating-point operations that is quadratic in the order of the matrix being sampled, and can be adapted to other matrix groups. In particular, we explain how it can be used to sample the Haar measure over the special orthogonal and unitary groups and the conditional probability distribution obtained by requiring the determinant of the sampled matrix be a given complex number on the complex unit circle.
