Shift—Nets: a New Class of Binary Digital (t, m, s)--Nets

Digital nets and sequences play an important role in the theory of low-discrepancy point sets and sequences in the s-dimensional unit cube. This paper is devoted to the binary case. We first will improve the lower bound for the quality parameter of binary digital sequences. The main aim is to introduce a new class of binary digital nets, the so-called shift—nets, which in many cases are nets of improved quality.
