Abstract: Let $(n_k{)}_{k=1}^{infty}$ be a lacunary sequence of integers. We show that if $mu$ is a probability measure on $[0,1)$ such that $|widehatmu(t)|leqc|t{|}^{-eta}$, then for $mu$-almost all $x$, the discrepancy $D_N(n_{k}x)$ satisfies �egin{equation*} frac{1}{4} leq limsup_{N oinfty}frac{N D_N(n_kx)}{sqrt{Nloglog N}} leq C end{equation*} for some constant $C>0$, proving a conjecture of Haynes, Jensen and Kristensen. This allows a slight improvement on their previous result on products of the form $$.
