The goal of this overview article is to give a tangible presentation of the breakthrough works in discrepancy theory [3, 5] by M. B. Levin. These works provide proofs for the exact lower discrepancy bounds of Halton’s sequence and a certain class of (t, s)-sequences. Our survey aims at highlighting the major ideas of the proofs and we discuss further implications of the employed methods. Moreover, we derive extensions of Levin’s results.
