In particular, we show that the Halton sequence achieves strong polynomial tractability for the weighted star discrepancy for product weights $(\\gamma_j)_{j \\ge 1}$ under the mildest condition on the weight sequence known so far for explicitly constructive sequences. The condition requires $\\sup_{d \\ge 1} \\max_{\\emptyset \\not= \\mathfrak{u} \\subseteq [d]} \\prod_{j \\in \\mathfrak{u}} (j \\gamma_j) < \\infty$. The same result holds for Niederreiter sequences and for other types of digital sequences. Our results are true also for the weighted unanchored discrepancy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-03-16T07:42:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11K38", "11K45", "65C05" ], "keywords": [ "weighted star discrepancy", "tractability properties", "sequence achieves strong polynomial tractability", "halton sequence achieves strong polynomial" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
