A note on Dobrushin's theorem and couplings in
poisson approximation in abelian groups
I. S. Borisov Sobolev Institute of Mathematics, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Abstract:
A more general version of Dobrushin's result connected with an optimal coupling of two random
variables is proven. An application to the problem of Poisson approximation in Abelian groups is
considered. In particular, an optimal coupling in Poisson approximation of empirical processes is
studied.
Keywords:
Monge–Kantorovich problem, duality theorem, Abelian group, empirical process, empirical measure, Poisson point process, Poisson approximation, coupling.
