Low-discrepancy sequence

In mathematics, a low-discrepancy sequence is a sequence with the property that for all values of N {\displaystyle N} , its subsequence x 1 , … , x N {\displaystyle x_{1},\ldots ,x_{N}} has a low discrepancy. Roughly speaking, the discrepancy of a sequence is low if the proportion of points in the sequence falling into an arbitrary set B is close to proportional to the measure of B, as would happen on average (but not for particular samples) in the case of an equidistributed sequence.
