The process of symmetrization is often used to construct point sets with low $L_p$ discrepancy. In the current work we apply this method to the shifted Hammersley point set. It is known that for every shift this symmetrized point set…

It is well known that the two-dimensional Hammersley point set consisting of $N=2^n$ elements (also known as Roth net) does not have optimal order of $L_p$-discrepancy for $p \in (1,\infty)$ in the sense of the lower bounds according to…

We study the local discrepancy of a symmetrized version of the well-known van der Corput sequence and of modified two-dimensional Hammersley point sets in arbitrary base $b$. We give upper bounds on the norm of the local discrepancy in…

We give an explicit construction of two-dimensional point sets whose $L_p$ discrepancy is of best possible order for all $1\le p\le \infty$. It is provided by folding Hammersley point sets in base $b$ by means of the $b$-adic baker's…

In this paper we study the extreme and the periodic $L_2$ discrepancy of plane point sets. The extreme discrepancy is based on arbitrary rectangles as test sets whereas the periodic discrepancy uses "periodic intervals", which can be seen…

The symmetrized Hammersley point set is known to achieve the best possible rate for the $L_2$-norm of the discrepancy function. Also lower bounds for the norm in Besov spaces of dominating mixed smoothness are known. In this paper a large…

Low discrepancy point sets have been widely used as a tool to approximate continuous objects by discrete ones in numerical processes, for example in numerical integration. Following a century of research on the topic, it is still unclear…

The L_2-discrepancy measures the irregularity of the distribution of a finite point set. In this note we prove lower bounds for the L_2 discrepancy of arbitrary N-point sets. Our main focus is on the two-dimensional case. Asymptotic upper…

We use the Haar function system in order to study the $L_2$ discrepancy of a class of digital $(0,n,2)$-nets. Our approach yields exact formulas for this quantity, which measures the irregularities of distribution of a set of points in the…

We study the $L_p$ discrepancy of two-dimensional digital nets for finite $p$. In the year 2001 Larcher and Pillichshammer identified a class of digital nets for which the symmetrized version in the sense of Davenport has $L_2$ discrepancy…

We consider the local discrepancy of a symmetrized version of Hammersley type point sets in the unit square. As a measure for the irregularity of distribution we study the norm of the local discrepancy in Besov spaces with dominating mixed…

We study the extreme and the periodic $L_p$ discrepancy of point sets in the $d$-dimensional unit cube. The extreme discrepancy uses arbitrary sub-intervals of the unit cube as test sets, whereas the periodic discrepancy is based on…

In this book chapter we survey known approaches and algorithms to compute discrepancy measures of point sets. After providing an introduction which puts the calculation of discrepancy measures in a more general context, we focus on the…

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…

It is well known that the $L_p$-discrepancy for $p \in [1,\infty]$ of the van der Corput sequence is of exact order of magnitude $O((\log N)/N)$. This however is for $p \in (1,\infty)$ not best possible with respect to the lower bounds…

Dick proved that all order $2$ digital nets satisfy optimal upper bounds of the $L_2$-discrepancy. We give an alternative proof for this fact using Haar bases. Furthermore, we prove that all digital nets satisfy optimal upper bounds of the…

Points in the unit cube with low discrepancy can be constructed using algebra or, more recently, by direct computational optimization of a criterion. The usual $L_\infty$ star discrepancy is a poor criterion for this because it is…

We study the periodic $L_2$-discrepancy of point sets in the $d$-dimensional torus. This discrepancy is intimately connected with the root-mean-square $L_2$-discrepancy of shifted point sets, with the notion of diaphony, and with the worst…

In this paper we study the geometric discrepancy of explicit constructions of uniformly distributed points on the two-dimensional unit sphere. We show that the spherical cap discrepancy of random point sets, of spherical digital nets and of…

The notion of symmetrization, also known as Davenport's reflection principle, is well known in the area of the discrepancy theory and quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) integration. In this paper we consider applying a symmetrization technique to a…
