Average distance of the mean of $n$ random complex numbers in a unit disc
Here is another method.
Since the uniform distribution on the unit disk is rotationally symmetric (invariant under orthogonal transformations), the problem can be reduced to a random walk problem in $ …

Expected absolute value of the average of two points from the disc
(Too long for a comment)
For the record:
$$\mathrm{exp\_abs}(3)=\frac{4}{3 \pi^2}\,I_3=0.3671989447$$
where
$$I_3=\int_{-1}^1\int_{-1}^1 \int_{-1}^1 |x+y+z|\sqrt{1-x^2}\sqrt{1-y^2}\sqrt{1-z^2}\,dx\,dy …
