Exchangeable pairs and Poisson approximation
This is a survey paper on Poisson approximation using Stein's method of exchangeable pairs. We illustrate using Poisson-binomial trials and many variations on three classical problems of combinatorial probability: the matching problem, the coupon ...

Pattern Avoidance for Random Permutations [PDF]
Using techniques from Poisson approximation, we prove explicit error bounds on the number of permutations that avoid any pattern. Most generally, we bound the total variation distance between the joint distribution of pattern occurrences and a ...

Improvements of Poisson approximation for n-dimensional unit cube random graph [PDF]
This paper uses the Stein-Chen method to obtain uniform and non-uniform bounds in the Poisson approximation for the n-dimensional unit cube random graph. These bounds are re-established under the restriction of Poisson mean λ = 1.

On Approximation of the Tails of the Binomial Distribution with These of the Poisson Law
A subject of this study is the behavior of the tail of the binomial distribution in the case of the Poisson approximation. The deviation from unit of the ratio of the tail of the binomial distribution and that of the Poisson distribution, multiplied by ...

A hooray for Poisson approximation [PDF]
We give several examples for Poisson approximation of quantities of interest in the analysis of algorithms: the distribution of node depth in a binary search tree, the distribution of the number of losers in an election algorithm and the discounted ...

Approximation Results for Sums of Independent Random Variables
In this article, we consider Poisson and Poisson convoluted geometric approximation to the sums of n independent random variables under moment conditions. We use Stein’s method to derive the approximation results in total variation distance.

Stochastic epidemiological model: Simulations of the SARS-CoV-2 spreading in Mexico
In this paper we model the spreading of the SARS-CoV-2 in Mexico by introducing a new stochastic approximation constructed from first principles, where the number of new infected individuals caused by a single infectious individual per unit time (a day),
