Abstract:
We give a \hbox{van der Corput}-type expression of the multi-dimensional \hbox{Kronecker} sequence and a geometrical characterization of its distribution property. We can consider the latter to be a multi-dimensional analogue of the "three-distance theorem." All these results were obtained by using the accelerated Brun algorithm.

Keywords: ergodic theory, irrational rotation, Kronecker sequence, low-discrepancy sequence, accelerated Brun algorithm, three-distance theorem
