1968_01_01_schmidt: Schmidt's 1968 theorem that for every sequence in the unit interval some interval has unbounded counting discrepancy, refereed in the Quarterly Journal of Mathematics; it answers the question yes.

1972_01_01_schmidt: Schmidt's 1972 theorem that for every sequence in the unit interval the anchors xx at which DN([0,x))D_N([0,x)) stays bounded are at most countable, so all but countably many anchored intervals answer the question yes; refereed.

1980_12_01_tijdeman_wagner: Tijdeman and Wagner's 1980 theorem that every sequence in [0,1)[0,1) has lim sup⁡N∣DN([0,x))∣/log⁡N≥1/400\limsup_N\lvert D_N([0,x))\rvert/\log N\ge1/400 for almost all xx, so almost every anchored interval answers the question yes; refereed.
