β¦ Synopsis
Generalizing E. Hlawka's concept of polynomial discrepancy we introduce a similar concept for sequences in the unit cube and on the sphere. We investigate the relation of this polynomial discrepancy to the usual discrepancy and obtain lower and upper bounds. In a final section some computational results are established.

We give bounds for the L p -discrepancy, pAN; of the van der Corput sequence in base 2. Further, we give a best possible upper bound for the star discrepancy of Γ°0; 1Γ-sequences and show that this bound is attained for the van der Corput sequence. Finally, we give a Γ°0; 1Γsequence with essentially s
## Abstract We estimate the discrepancy of (__nx__) when __n__ is sampled by a random walk and give examples involving the diophantine approximation properties of __x__. The proof relies upon the combination of the metric entropy method and the ErdΓΆsβTuran inequality. (Β© 2004 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH
