✦ Synopsis

We present multivariate generalizations of some classical results on the accuracy of Poisson approximation for the distribution of a sum of 0 -1 random variables. A multivariate generalization of Bradley's theorem (Michigan Math. J. 30 (1983) 69) is established as well.

An upper bound for the total variation distance between the distribution of the sum of a sequence of r.v.'s and that of a compound Poisson is derived. Its applications to a general independent sequence and Markov-binomial sequence are demonstrated. (~
