It is known that there is a constant $c>0$ such that for every sequence $x_1, x_2,\ldots$ in $[0,1)$ we have for the star discrepancy $D^{*}_N$ of the first $N$ elements of the sequence that $N D^{*}_N\geq c\cdot \log N$ holds for…

For all $s \geq 1$ and $N \geq 1$ there exist sequences $(z_1,\ldots,z_N)$ in $[0,1]^s$ such that the star-discrepancy of these points can be bounded by $$D_N^*(z_1,\ldots,z_N) \leq c \frac{\sqrt{s}}{\sqrt{N}}.$$ The best known value for…

In this paper we study uniform distribution properties of digital sequences over a finite field of prime order. In 1998 it was shown by Larcher that for almost all $s$-dimensional digital sequences the star discrepancy $D_N^\ast$ satisfies…

The star discrepancy $D_N^*(\mathcal{P})$ is a quantitative measure for the irregularity of distribution of a finite point set $\mathcal{P}$ in the multi-dimensional unit cube which is intimately related to the integration error of…

By a result of Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski and Wo\'zniakowski the inverse of the star discrepancy $n(d,\varepsilon)$ satisfies $n(d,\varepsilon)\leq c_{\abs}d\varepsilon^{-2}$. Equivalently for any $N$ and $d$ there exists a set of $N$…

Let $ (H_s(n))_{n \geq 1} $ be an $s-$dimensional generalized Halton's sequence. Let $\emph{D}^{*}_N$ be the discrepancy of the sequence $ (H_s(n) )_{n = 1}^{N} $. It is known that $D^{*}_{N} =O(\ln^s N)$ as $N \to \infty $. In this paper,…

We study the extreme $L_p$ discrepancy of infinite sequences in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, which uses arbitrary sub-intervals of the unit cube as test sets. This is in contrast to the classical star $L_p$ discrepancy, which uses…

By a profound result of Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski, and Wo{\'z}niakowski the inverse of the star-discrepancy $n^*(s,\ve)$ satisfies the upper bound $n^*(s,\ve) \leq c_{\mathrm{abs}} s \ve^{-2}$. This is equivalent to the fact that for any…

Following a result of D.~Bylik and M.T.~Lacey from 2008 it is known that there exists an absolute constant $\eta>0$ such that the (unnormalized) $L^{\infty}$-norm of the three-dimensional discrepancy function, i.e, the (unnormalized) star…

The inverse of the star-discrepancy $N^*(d,\ve)$ denotes the smallest possible cardinality of a set of points in $[0,1]^d$ achieving a star-discrepancy of at most $\ve$. By a result of Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski and Wo{\'z}niakowski, $$…

In 2001 Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski and Wo\'zniakowski proved that the inverse of the star discrepancy satisfies $n(d,\varepsilon)\leq c_{\abs}d \varepsilon^{-2}$ by showing that there exists a set of points in $[0,1)^d$ whose…

In 2004 the second author of the present paper proved that a point set in $[0,1]^d$ which has star-discrepancy at most $\varepsilon$ must necessarily consist of at least $c_{abs} d \varepsilon^{-1}$ points. Equivalently, every set of $n$…

Let $d_N=ND_N(\omega)$ be the discrepancy of the Van der Corput sequence in base $2$. We improve on the known bounds for the number of indices $N$ such that $d_N\leq \log N/100$. Moreover, we show that the summatory function of $d_N$…

The inverse of the star-discrepancy problem asks for point sets $P_{N,s}$ of size $N$ in the $s$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^s$ whose star-discrepancy $D^\ast(P_{N,s})$ satisfies $$D^\ast(P_{N,s}) \le C \sqrt{s/N},$$ where $C> 0$ is a…

We establish the existence of $N$-point sets in dimension $d$ whose star-discrepancy is bounded above by $2.4631832 \sqrt{\frac{d}{N}}$, where the numerical constant improves upon all previously known bounds. This improvement is obtained by…

According to Aistleitner and Weimar, there exist two-dimensional (double) infinite matrices whose star-discrepancy $D_N^{*s}$ of the first $N$ rows and $s$ columns, interpreted as $N$ points in $[0,1]^s$, satisfies an inequality of the form…

Let $ (\bx(n))_{n \geq 1} $ be an $s-$dimensional Niederreiter-Xing sequence in base $b$. Let $D((\bx(n))_{n = 1}^{N})$ be the discrepancy of the sequence $ (\bx(n))_{n = 1}^{N} $. It is known that $N D((\bx(n))_{n = 1}^{N}) =O(\ln^s N)$ as…

The aims of this paper are twofold. First, it discusses the Littlewood conjecture and its variants with respect to uniformly distributed sequences. The second aim is to determine the exact order of the discrepancy of the van der…

We study the problem of constructing sequences $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on $[0,1]$ in such a way that $$ D_N^* = \sup_{0 \leq x \leq 1} \left| \frac{ \left\{1 \leq i \leq N: x_i \leq x \right\}}{N} - x \right|$$ is uniformly small. A result…

The $L_{\infty}$ star discrepancy is a very well-studied measure used to quantify the uniformity of a point set distribution. Constructing optimal point sets for this measure is seen as a very hard problem in the discrepancy community.…
