Normal numbers and nested perfect necklaces

M. B. Levin used Sobol–Faure low discrepancy sequences with Pascal triangle matrices modulo 2 to construct, a real number x such that the first N terms of the sequence (2 n xmod1) n≥1 have discrepancy O((logN) 2 ∕N). This is the lowest discrepancy known for this kind of sequences. In this note we ch...
