Faure, Henri Irregularities of distribution of digital \(0,1\)-sequences in prime base. (English) Zbl 1084.11041 Integers 5, No. 3, Paper A07, 12 p. (2005). The author compares digital \((0,1)\)-sequences generated by nonsingular upper triangular matrices in arbitrary prime bases to van der Corput sequences and shows these last ones are the worst distributed with respect to the star discrepancy, the extreme discrepancy, the \(L_2\)-discrepancy and the diaphony. Moreover, he obtains digital \((0,1)\)-sequences in arbitrary prime bases with good extreme discrepancy, quite comparable to the best generalized van der Corput sequences already found in preceding studies.
