Abstract

In this paper, we develop constructive algorithms for generating quasi-uniform point sets and sequences over arbitrary two-dimensional triangular domains. Our proposed method, called the \emph{Voronoi-guided greedy packing} algorithm, iteratively selects the point farthest from the current set among a finite candidate set determined by the Voronoi diagram of the triangle. Our main theoretical result shows that, after a finite number of iterations, the mesh ratio of the generated point set is at most~2, which is known to be optimal. We further analyze two existing triangular low-discrepancy point sets and prove that their mesh ratios are uniformly bounded, thereby establishing their quasi-uniformity. Finally, through a series of numerical experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed method provides an efficient and practical strategy for generating high-quality point sets on individual triangles.
