Examples include the Gaussian ensemble, the Haar-distributed random orthogonal ensemble, and their complex-valued counterparts. A "direct" approach to the simulation, where one first generates a dense\ n{\texttimes}n\ matrix from the ensemble, requires at least\ O(n2)\ resource in space and time. The HD algorithm overcomes this O(n2)\ bottleneck by using the principle of deferred decisions: rather than fixing the entire random matrix in advance, it lets the randomness unfold with the dynamics. At the heart of this matrix-free algorithm is an adaptive and recursive construction of (random) Householder reflectors. These orthogonal transformations exploit the group symmetry of the matrix ensembles, while simultaneously maintaining the statistical correlations induced by the dynamics. The memory and computation costs of the HD algorithm are\ O(nT)\ and\ O(nT2), respectively, with\ T\ being the number of iterations. When\ T<
