Abstract: this paper, we shall describe the asymptotic behaviors of several distances of Poisson approximation to a wide class of discrete distributions covering many examples from number theory, combinatorics and arithmetic semigroups. Our aim is to show that whenever (analytic) generating functions of the random variables in question are available, complex-analytic methods can be used to derive precise asymptotic results for the five distances above. Actually, we shall consider the following... (Update)
