De Marchi, Stefano Elefante, Giacomo 2018-05-01 In this paper we consider two sets of points for Quasi-Monte Carlo integration on two- dimensional manifolds. The first is the set of mapped low-discrepancy sequence by a measure preserving map, from a rectangle U⊂R2 to the manifold. The second is the greedy minimal Riesz s-energy points extracted from a suitable discretization of the manifold. Thanks to the Poppy-seed Bagel Theorem we know that the classes of points with minimal Riesz s-energy, under suitable assumptions, are asymptotically uniformly distributed with respect to the normalized Hausdorff measure. They can then be considered as quadrature points on manifolds via the Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) method. On the other hand, we do not know if the greedy minimal Riesz s-energy points are a good choice to integrate functions with the QMC method on manifolds. Through theoretical considerations, by showing some properties of these points and by numerical experiments, we attempt to answer to these questions. application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/306381 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/306381/files/ele_qim.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1016/j.apnum.2017.12.017 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Applied Numerical Mathematics. - 2018, vol. 127, p. 110–124 info:eu-repo/classification/udc/51 Quasi-Monte Carlo integration on manifolds with mapped low-discrepancy points and greedy minimal Riesz s-energy points http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
