Low-discrepancy point sets for non-uniform measures

Christoph Aistleitner, Josef Dick (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

We prove several results concerning the existence of low-discrepancy point sets with respect to an arbitrary non-uniform measure μ on the d-dimensional unit cube. We improve a theorem of Beck, by showing that for any d ≥ 1, N ≥ 1, and any non-negative, normalized Borel measure μ on [ 0 , 1 ] d there exists a point set x 1 , . . . , x N [ 0 , 1 ] d whose star-discrepancy with respect to μ is of order D N * ( x 1 , . . . , x N ; μ ) ( ( l o g N ) ( 3 d + 1 ) / 2 ) / N . For the proof we use a theorem of Banaszczyk concerning the balancing of vectors, which implies an upper bound for the linear discrepancy...

Lower bound for class numbers of certain real quadratic fields

Mohit Mishra (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let d be a square-free positive integer and h ( d ) be the class number of the real quadratic field ( d ) . We give an explicit lower bound for h ( n 2 + r ) , where r = 1 , 4 . Ankeny and Chowla proved that if g > 1 is a natural number and d = n 2 g + 1 is a square-free integer, then g h ( d ) whenever n > 4 . Applying our lower bounds, we show that there does not exist any natural number n > 1 such that h ( n 2 g + 1 ) = g . We also obtain a similar result for the family ( n 2 g + 4 ) . As another application, we deduce some criteria for a class group of prime power order to be cyclic.

Lower bounds for a conjecture of Erdős and Turán

Ioannis Konstantoulas (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

We study representation functions of asymptotic additive bases and more general subsets of ℕ (sets with few nonrepresentable numbers). We prove that if ℕ∖(A+A) has sufficiently small upper density (as in the case of asymptotic bases) then there are infinitely many numbers with more than five representations in A+A, counting order.
