Distortion mismatch in the quantization of probability measures
ESAIM: Probability and Statistics, Tome 12 (2008), pp. 127-153.

We elucidate the asymptotics of the L s -quantization error induced by a sequence of L r -optimal n-quantizers of a probability distribution P on d when s>r. In particular we show that under natural assumptions, the optimal rate is preserved as long as s<r+d (and for every s in the case of a compactly supported distribution). We derive some applications of these results to the error bounds for quantization based cubature formulae in numerical integration on d and on the Wiener space.
