Abstract

Recent results in the theory of quasi-Monte Carlo methods have shown that the weighted Koksma-Hlawka inequality gives better estimates for the error of quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms. We present a method for finding good weights for several classes of functions and apply it to certain algorithms using the Brownian Bridge construction, which are important for financial applications.
