Best Known (173−93, 173, s)-Nets in Base 3

(173−93, 173, 56)-Net over F₃ — Constructive and digital

Digital (80, 173, 56)-net over F₃, using

7 times m-reduction [i] based on digital (80, 180, 56)-net over F₃, using
- (u,Â u+v)-construction [i] based on
  1. digital (15, 65, 28)-net over F₃, using
    - net from sequence [i] based on digital (15, 27)-sequence over F₃, using
      - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₃ with g(F) = 15 and N(F) ≥ 28, using
        an explicitly constructive algebraic function field [i]
  2. digital (15, 115, 28)-net over F₃, using
    - net from sequence [i] based on digital (15, 27)-sequence over F₃ (see above)

(173−93, 173, 84)-Net over F₃ — Digital

Digital (80, 173, 84)-net over F₃, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (71, 173, 84)-net over F₃, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (71, 83)-sequence over F₃, using
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₃ with g(F) = 71 and N(F) ≥ 84, using
    - algebraic function fields over â„¤₃ by Niederreiter/Xing [i]

(173−93, 173, 503)-Net in Base 3 — Upper bound on s

There is no (80, 173, 504)-net in base 3, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (80, 172, 504)-net in base 3, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 3^mÂ â‰¥ 12315 532280 836108 686988 058504 724945 271494 819974 576577 007492 400817 152449 026774 994257 > 3¹⁷² [i]
