Constructions of Low-discrepancy Sequences - The Hammersley Set

The Hammersley Set

Let b1,...,bs-1 be coprime positive integers greater than 1. For given s and N, the s-dimensional Hammersley set of size N is defined by


x(n)=(g_{b_1}(n),\dots,g_{b_{s-1}}(n),\frac{n}{N})

for n = 1, ..., N. Then


D^*_N(x(1),\dots,x(N))\leq C\frac{(\log N)^{s-1}}{N}

where C is a constant depending only on b1, ..., bs−1.

Famous quotes containing the word set:

    [T]he dignity of parliament it seems can brook no opposition to it’s power. Strange that a set of men who have made sale of their virtue to the minister should yet talk of retaining dignity!
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
