We study the distribution ofs-dimensional points of Fermat quotients modulopwith arbitrary lags. If no lags coincide modulopthe same technique as in [21] works. However, there are some interesting twists in the other case. We prove a discrepancy bound which is unconditional fors= 2 and needs restrictions on the lags fors> 2. We apply this bound to derive results on the pseudorandomness of the binary threshold sequence derived from Fermat quotients in terms of bounds on the well-distribution measure and the correlation measure of order 2, both introduced by Mauduit and Sárközy. We also prove a lower bound on its linear complexity profile. The proofs are based on bounds on exponential sums and earlier relations between discrepancy and both measures above shown by Mauduit, Niederreiter and Sárközy. Moreover, we analyze the lattice structure of Fermat quotients modulopwith arbitrary lags.
