(Step-by-Step) Suppose X ~ Poisson (λ) and α ∈ (0,1). Apply the Markov inequality for the random variable Y_s=e^-s X to get an upper bound


Question: Suppose \(X \sim\) Poisson \((\lambda)\) and \(\alpha \in(0,1)\).

  1. Apply the Markov inequality for the random variable \(Y_{s}=e^{-s X}\) to get an upper bound for \(P(X<\alpha \lambda)\).
  2. Minimize the bound obtained in (a) with respect to \(s\) to have a sharper bound.
