Abstract: Bessel-type convolution algebras of bounded Borel measures on the matrix cones of positive semidefinite qimesq-matrices over mathbbR,mathbbC,mathbbH were introduced recently by R"osler. These convolutions depend on some continuous parameter, generate commutative hypergroup structures and have Bessel functions of matrix argument as characters. Here, we first study the rich algebraic structure of these hypergroups. In particular, the subhypergroups and automorphisms are classified, and we show that each quotient by a subhypergroup carries a hypergroup structure of the same type. The algebraic properties are partially related to properties of random walks on matrix Bessel hypergroups. In particular, known properties of Wishart distributions, which form Gaussian convolution semigroups on these hypergroups, are put into a new light. Moreover, limit theorems for random walks on these hypergroups are presented. In particular, we obtain strong laws of large numbers and a central limit theorem with Wishart distributions as limits.
