Abstract

We give an exact formula for the L 2 discrepancy of two-dimensional digitally shifted Hammersley point sets in base b. This formula shows that for certain bases b and certain shifts the L 2 discrepancy is of best possible order with respect to the general lower bound due to Roth. Hence, for the first time, it is proved that, for a thin, but infinite subsequence of bases b starting with 5,19,71,…, a single permutation only can achieve this best possible order, unlike previous results of White (1975) who needs b permutations and Faure & Pillichshammer (2008) who need 2 permutations.
