This is a survey article on Brownian motions on compact connected groups and the associated Gaussian convolution semigroups. The emphasize is on infinite dimensional groups such as the infinite dimensional torus and infinite products of special orthogonal groups. We discuss the existence of Brownian motions having nice properties such as marginales having a continuous density with respect to Haar measure. We relate the existence of these Brownian motions to the algebraic structure of the group. The results we describe reflect the conflicting effects of, on the one hand, the infinite dimensionality and, on the other hand, the compact nature of the underlying group.
