This class implements basic methods for working with radical inverses of integers in an arbitrary basis \(b\).
These methods are used in classes that implement point sets and sequences based on the van der Corput sequence (the Hammersley nets and the Halton sequence, for example).
We recall that for a \(k\)-digit integer \(i\) whose digital \(b\)-ary expansion is
\[ i = a_0 + a_1 b + …+ a_{k-1} b^{k-1}, \]
the radical inverse in base \(b\) is
\[ \psi_b(i) = a_0 b^{-1} + a_1 b^{-2} + \cdots+ a_{k-1} b^{-k}. \]
The van der Corput sequence in base \(b\) is the sequence \(\psi_b(0), \psi_b(1), \psi_b(2), …\)
Note that \(\psi_b(i)\) cannot always be represented exactly as a floating-point number on the computer (e.g., if \(b\) is not a power of two). For an exact representation, one can use the integer
\[ b^k \psi_b(i) = a_{k-1} + \cdots+ a_1 b^{k-2} + a_0 b^{k-1}, \]
which we called the integer radical inverse representation. This representation is simply a mirror image of the digits of the usual \(b\)-ary representation of \(i\).
It is common practice to permute locally the values of the van der Corput sequence. One way of doing this is to apply a permutation to the digits of \(i\) before computing \(\psi_b(i)\). That is, for a permutation \(\pi\) of the digits \(\{0,…,b-1\}\),
\[ \psi_b(i) = \sum_{r=0}^{k-1} a_r b^{-r-1} \]
is replaced by
\[ \sum_{r=0}^{k-1} \pi(a_r) b^{-r-1}. \]
Applying such a permutation only changes the order in which the values of \(\psi_b(i)\) are enumerated. For every integer \(k\), the first \(b^k\) values that are enumerated remain the same (they are the values of \(\psi_b(i)\) for \(i=0,…,b^k-1\)), but they are enumerated in a different order. Often, different permutations \(\pi\) will be applied for different coordinates of a point set.
The permutation \(\pi\) can be deterministic or random. One (deterministic) possibility implemented here is the Faure permutation \(\sigma_b\) of \(\{0,…,b-1\}\) defined as follows [60] . For \(b=2\), take \(\sigma= I\), the identical permutation. For even \(b=2c > 2\), take
\begin{align} \sigma[i] & = 2\tau[i]\phantom{{} + 1} \qquad i = 0, 1, …, c-1 \\ \sigma[i+c] & = 2\tau[i] + 1 \qquad i = 0, 1, …, c-1 \end{align}
where \(\tau[i]\) is the Faure permutation for base \(c\). For odd \(b=2c+1\), take
\begin{align} \sigma[c] & = c \\ \sigma[i] & = \tau[i],\phantom{{} + 1} \qquad\mbox{ if } 0 \le\tau[i] < c \\ \sigma[i] & = \tau[i] + 1, \qquad\mbox{ if } c \le\tau[i] < 2c \end{align}
for \(0 \le i < c\), and take
\begin{align} \sigma[i] & = \tau[i-1],\phantom{{} + 1} \qquad\mbox{ if } 0 \le\tau[i-1] < c \\ \sigma[i] & = \tau[i-1]+1, \qquad\mbox{ if } c \le\tau[i-1] < 2c \end{align}
for \(c < i \le2c\), and where \(\tau[i]\) is the Faure permutation for base \(c\). The Faure permutations give very small discrepancies (amongst the best known today) for small bases.

A fast method that incrementally computes the radical inverse \(x_{i+1}\) in base \(b\) from \(x_i\) = x
= \(\psi_b(i)\), using addition with rigthward carry.
The parameter invb
is equal to \(1/b\). Using long incremental streams (i.e., calling this method several times in a row) cause increasing inaccuracy in \(x\). Thus the user should recompute the radical inverse directly by calling radicalInverse every once in a while (i.e. in every few thousand calls).

A fast method that incrementally computes the radical inverse \(x_{i+1}\) in base \(b\) from \(x_i\) = \(\psi_b(i)\), using addition with rigthward carry as described in [235] .
Since using long incremental streams (i.e., calling this method several times in a row) cause increasing inaccuracy in \(x\), the method recomputes the radical inverse directly from \(i\) by calling radicalInverse once in every 1000 calls.
