Construction of nested space-filling designs
New types of designs called nested space-filling designs have been proposed
for conducting multiple computer experiments with different levels of accuracy.
In this article, we develop several approaches to constructing such designs.
The development of these methods also leads to the introduction of several new
discrete mathematics concepts, including nested orthogonal arrays and nested
difference matrices.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/09-AOS690 the Annals of

Sliced rotated sphere packing designs
Space-filling designs are popular choices for computer experiments. A sliced
design is a design that can be partitioned into several subdesigns. We propose
a new type of sliced space-filling design called sliced rotated sphere packing
designs. Their full designs and subdesigns are rotated sphere packing designs.
They are constructed by rescaling, rotating, translating and extracting the
points from a sliced lattice. We provide two fast algorithms to generate such
designs. Furthermore, we propose a strategy to use sliced rotated sphere
packing designs adaptively. Under this strategy, initial runs are uniformly
distributed in the design space, follow-up runs are added by incorporating
information gained from initial runs, and the combined design is space-filling
for any local region. Examples are given to illustrate its potential
application
Additive Asymmetric Quantum Codes
We present a general construction of asymmetric quantum codes based on
additive codes under the trace Hermitian inner product. Various families of
additive codes over \F_{4} are used in the construction of many asymmetric
quantum codes over \F_{4}.Comment: Accepted for publication March 2, 2011, IEEE Transactions on
