Summary

Recently, Hickernell introduced a new class of low-discrepancy sequences which is an infinite version of good lattice points. His sequences are constructed from multiplying the van der Corput sequence by an integer vector. In this paper, we define the polynomial arithmetic analogue of Hickernell sequences by using polynomials over finite fields GF(b), and show that this new type of sequences constitute a class of digital (t, s)-sequences. Then, we give two versions of matrix representation for their generator matrices, and prove that for the first version, there do not exist (0, s)-sequences for any base b ≥ 2 and any dimension s ≥ 2, and that for the second version, there do not exist (0, s)-sequences in base b = 2 for any s ≥ 2.
