Tractability properties of the weighted star discrepancy of the Halton sequence (Q1713145)

The authors study the weighted star discrepancy of the Halton sequence and show that strong polynomial tractability is achieved. The weights $(\gamma_{j})$ are of product type and satisfy the mild growth condition \[ \sup_{d\geq 1}\max_{\emptyset\neq u \subseteq \{1,\ldots, d\}}\prod_{j\in u}(j\gamma_{j})<\infty. \] Similar results hold for various other digital sequences as well as for the weighted unanchored discrepancy.
