Discrepancy estimates for index-transformed uniformly distributed sequences (Q466165)

In this article discrepancy bounds for index-transformed low discrepancy sequences are established. The main focus lies on sequences \((x_{f(n)})_{n\geq 0},\) where \(f(n)= s_{q}(n)\) is the \(q\)-ary sum of digits function. A general theorem allows to prove discrepancy bounds in the case when \((x_{n})\) is a Halton sequence or a digital net in \(s\) dimensions. A final section is devoted to index sequences of the type \(f(n)=\lfloor n^{\alpha}\rfloor\) with \(0<\alpha<1\).
