XXXX A Note on Sums of Independent Random
نویسنده
چکیده
In this note a two sided bound on the tail probability of sums of independent, and either symmetric or nonnegative, random variables is obtained. We utilize a recent result by Lataa la on bounds on moments of such sums. We also give a new proof of Lataa la's result for nonnegative random variables, and improve one of the constants in his inequality.

The main purpose of this note is to establish some bounds in Poisson approximation for row-wise arrays of independent geometric distributed random variables using the operator method. Some results related to random sums of independent geometric distributed random variables are also investigated.
