On the discrepancy of (0,1)-sequences

We give bounds for the Lp-discrepancy, , of the van der Corput sequence in base 2. Further, we give a best possible upper bound for the star discrepancy of (0,1)-sequences and show that this bound is attained for the van der Corput sequence. Finally, we give a (0,1)-sequence with essentially smaller star discrepancy than for the van der Corput sequence.
