Lemme de Bohl pour les suites de Van der Corput généralisées. (Bohl lemma for the generalized Van der Corput sequences) (Q1065066)

For (n\(\alpha)\)-sequences the remainders about two intervals are related by the Bohl lemma. In the present paper the author proves a similar result for generalized Van der Corput sequences \(S_ r^{\Sigma}\). In the main result a formula of the type \[ E(J,(0,N],S_ 2^{\Sigma})=\sum (J',T,S_ 2^{\Sigma}) \] (for intervals J,J'\(\subseteq [0,1)\) of equal length), is obtained, where T is a certain interval of integers with length \(| T| =N\) and \[ E(J,T,(x_ n))=card\{n\in T:\quad x_ n\in J\}-| T| \quad | J|. \] As a corollary a recent result of \textit{P. Hellekalek} [J. Number Theory 18, 41-55 (1984; Zbl 0531.10055)] is derived. The proofs are based on elementary but very clever arguments.
