Abstract :
We wish to \\int_{S}|Z-f(Z)|^{2},S the unit square, over all choices of f(Z) which take just n values. For large n it is shown that f(Z) approaches that function which on each face of a "hexagonal mesh" has the value of the centroid of that face. This problem in the design of quantizers for a pulse-code modulation (PCM) system arose in which pairs of adjacent samples are quantized in an effort to capitalize on the correlation between samples and on the geometry of the plane.
