Best Known (178−117, 178, s)-Nets in Base 4

(178−117, 178, 66)-Net over F₄ — Constructive and digital

Digital (61, 178, 66)-net over F₄, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (49, 178, 66)-net over F₄, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (49, 65)-sequence over F₄, using
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₄ with g(F) = 49 and N(F) ≥ 66, using
    - T₆ from the second tower of function fields by GarcÃa and Stichtenoth over F₄ [i]

(178−117, 178, 99)-Net over F₄ — Digital

Digital (61, 178, 99)-net over F₄, using

net from sequence [i] based on digital (61, 98)-sequence over F₄, using
- Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₄ with g(F) = 61 and N(F) ≥ 99, using
  - Drinfeld modules of rank 1 [i]

(178−117, 178, 468)-Net in Base 4 — Upper bound on s

There is no (61, 178, 469)-net in base 4, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (61, 177, 469)-net in base 4, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 4^mÂ â‰¥ 39552 297887 534637 926446 542449 893926 021973 658274 578950 449647 623609 576147 298844 454866 281330 162397 345324 474640 > 4¹⁷⁷ [i]
