Hello:
Can you tell me if there's a simple way to generate in R random
vectors on the unit sphere in R^{n}? Additionally, are there references for
this question? Thanks in advance.

There's some references in the documentation of the gsl library (GNU scientific library). See http://sources.redhat.com/gsl/ref/gsl-ref_19.html#SEC303
