Abstract

Using a multivariable Faa di Bruno formula we give conditions on transformations τ:[0,1]m→X\tau:[0,1]^m\to\mathcal{X}τ:[0,1]m→X where X\mathcal{X}X is a closed and bounded subset of Rd\mathbb{R}^dRd such that f∘τf\circ\tauf∘τ is of bounded variation in the sense of Hardy and Krause for all f∈Cd(x)f\in C^d(\mathcal{x})f∈Cd(x). We give similar conditions for f∘τf\circ\tauf∘τ to be smooth enough for scrambled net sampling to attain O(n−3/2+ϵ)O(n^{-3/2+\epsilon})O(n−3/2+ϵ) accuracy. Some popular symmetric transformations to the simplex and sphere are shown to satisfy neither condition. Some other transformations due to Fang and Wang (1993) satisfy the first but not the second condition. We provide transformations for the simplex that makes f∘τf\circ\tauf∘τ smooth enough to fully benefit from scrambled net sampling for all fff in a class of generalized polynomials. We also find sufficient conditions for the Rosenblatt-Hlawka-M\"uck transformation in R2\mathbb{R}^2R2 and for importance sampling to be of bounded variation in the sense of Hardy and Krause.
