    Van Der Corput Sequence

    Definition

    Van der Corput sequences are a means of generating sequences of points that are maximally self-avoiding (a.k.a. quasirandom sequences). In the one-dimensional case, the simplest approach to generate such a sequence is to simply divide the interval into a number of equal subintervals. Similarly, one can divide an n-dimensional volume by uniformly partitioning each of its dimensions. However, these approaches, have a number of drawbacks for numerical integration, especially for high dimensions.
