MinT - Best Known (18, 18+99, s)-Nets in Base 8

Best Known (18, 18+99, s)-Nets in Base 8

Digital (18, 117, 65)-net over F₈, using

t-expansion [i] based on digital (14, 117, 65)-net over F₈, using
- net from sequence [i] based on digital (14, 64)-sequence over F₈, using
  - Niederreiterâ€“Xing sequence constructionÂ II/III [i] based on function field F/F₈ with g(F) = 14 and N(F) ≥ 65, using
    - the Suzuki function field over F₈ [i]

There is no (18, 117, 296)-net in base 8, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (18, 116, 296)-net in base 8, but
- extracting embedded orthogonal array [i] would yield OA(8¹¹⁶, 296, S₈, 98), but
  - 4 times code embedding in larger space [i] would yield OA(8¹²⁰, 300, S₈, 98), but
    - the linear programming bound shows that MÂ â‰¥ 72 391436 036661 870506 841663 284749 383948 996578 497360 045511 574810 433100 255329 333527 458922 411946 454865 643457 540180 726661 803342 026848 614599 345418 648840 804419 427140 608273 178357 015888 950266 136667 655834 011931 483579 565276 837676 109005 285853 390154 500910 063042 730800 034201 395522 890927 060349 838070 912163 028243 147934 409475 727494 923833 324123 955969 079425 802665 504019 003172 537304 266547 419992 973549 685854 570582 518651 067108 338295 135301 669741 318242 472033 455161 862112 610613 107184 093100 572061 540997 398528 / 29 833571 454284 666730 273810 076668 595022 381000 861479 193643 318605 828254 959929 285703 016807 839251 126709 255146 942998 619648 119868 620866 035186 717895 239752 226492 992926 837847 710783 960610 903347 533279 891708 855922 743885 653623 024410 992653 044103 197695 890752 666761 781784 319919 703649 673999 906001 435357 616750 918757 442488 337081 208663 397951 043953 064284 007145 394137 438180 886383 843011 053613 936443 > 8¹²⁰ [i]
