Abstract
In this note, we design a discrete random walk on the real line which takes steps (and one with steps in ) where at least of the signs are in expectation, and which has as a stationary distribution. As an immediate corollary, we obtain an online version of Banaszczyk's discrepancy result for partial colorings and signings. Additionally, we recover linear time algorithms for logarithmic bounds for the Koml\'{o}s conjecture in an oblivious online setting.
