We study a special class of -nets in base 2. In particular, we are concerned with the two-dimensional Hammersley net that plays a special role among these since we prove that it is the worst distributed with respect to the star discrepancy. By showing this, we also improve an existing upper bound for the star discrepancy of digital -nets over . Moreover, we show that nets with very low star discrepancy can be obtained by transforming the Hammersley point set in a suitable way.
Nous examinons une classe spéciale de -réseaux en base 2. Particulièrement, nous nous occupons du réseau de Hammersley en deux dimensions qui joue un rôle spécial parmi ce type de réseaux, puisque nous démontrons que c’est le plus mal distribué quant à la discrépance à l’origine. En le montrant, nous améliorons un majorant connu pour la discrépance à l’origine de -réseaux en base 2. De plus, nous démontrons qu’on peut obtenir des réseaux avec une discrépance à l’origine très basse en transformant le réseau de Hammersley d’une manière appropriée.
