Abstract

We give some refinements of results of Schoissengeier on the dis- crepancies of irrational rotations. Using these refinements, we give an explanation for the unusual behavior of the discrepancies of irrational rotations based on some specific numbers having isolated large partial quotients in their continued fraction expansion.


Keywords

Discrepancy, irrational rotations, continued fractions, Ostrowski representation.
