We give a full characterization of lattices with optimal $L^2$ discrepancy in terms of the continued fraction partial quotients, and compute the precise asymptotics whenever the continued fraction expansion is explicitly known, such as for quadratic irrationals or Euler's number $e$. In the metric theory, we find the asymptotics of the $L^2$ discrepancy for almost every irrational, and the limit distribution for randomly chosen rational and irrational lattices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-12-03T09:22:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11K38", "11J83" ], "keywords": [ "discrepancy", "continued fraction partial quotients", "irrational lattices", "metric theory", "eulers number" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
