Let \(\mu\) be a probability measure on a locally compact \(\sigma\)-compact group. The authors prove that a random walk associated with \(\mu\) is weakly mixing if and only if it is ergodic and strictly aperiodic. The proof is based on results on the eigenvalues of the associated transition operators.
