Lower Bound
The discrepancy of arbitrary points satisfies
- ≥
for any nonzero lattice point, where denotes the number of nonzero coordinates of .
These two theorems show that the CIG is not perfect because the discrepancy is greater strictly than a positive value but also the CIG is not the worst generator as the discrepancy is lower than a value less than 1.
There exist also theorems which bound the average value of the discrepancy for Compound Inversive Generators and also ones which take values such that the discrepancy is bounded by some value depending on the parameters. For more details see the original paper.

Famous quotes containing the word bound:
“The essence of the modern state is that the universal be bound up with the complete freedom of its particular members and with private well-being, that thus the interests of family and civil society must concentrate themselves on the state.... It is only when both these moments subsist in their strength that the state can be regarded as articulated and genuinely organized.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“I live in my wooden legs and O
my green green hands.
Too late
to wish I had not run from youpollo,
blood moves still in my bark bound veins.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
