We prove that the quality of the sample is given by the $L_\\gamma(M)$-average of the geodesic distance to the point set and determine the value of $\\gamma\\in (0,\\infty]$. This extends our findings on bounded convex domains [arXiv:2009.11275, 2020]. Further, a limit theorem for moments of the average distance to a set consisting of i.i.d. uniform points is proven. This yields that a random sample is asymptotically as good as an optimal sample in precisely those cases with $\\gamma<\\infty$. In particular, we obtain that cubature formulas with random nodes are asymptotically as good as optimal cubature formulas if the weights are chosen correctly. This closes a logarithmic gap left open by Ehler, Gr\\\"af and Oates [Stat. Comput., 29:1203-1214, 2019].", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-09T08:58:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "41A55", "65D05", "41A25", "41A63", "58C35", "65D15" ], "keywords": [ "function recovery", "scattered data", "logarithmic gap left open", "finite point set", "optimal cubature formulas" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
