Feb 8, 2012 at 3:22 comment added cardinal I think you intend to normalize by $D^{1/p}$ instead of $D$, if I'm not mistaken. Also, $B_1^n$ is not the standard simplex. To generate uniformly on the $\ell_1$ ball you need to do something like multiply each coordinate $X_i$ by iid random variables $\epsilon_i$ uniform on {−1,+1}.
Feb 7, 2012 at 22:10 comment added Suvrit so it seems that you are looking for uniform distribution on the surface of an $\ell_p$ ball (not in the ball).
