A new semigroup technique in Poisson approximation
The authors present a new semigroup technique for Poisson approximation of sums of independent Bernoulli random variables. The new method gives a unified approach to derive approximations with respect to various probability metrics. The method is applied to extend their earlier work [Ann. Probab. 14, 663-676 (1986; Zbl 0597.60019), Semigroup Forum 34, 203-224 (1986; Zbl 0606.60034)].
