The accuracy of the Normal or Poisson approximations can be significantly improved by adding part of an asymptotic expansion in the exponent. The signed-compound-Poisson measures obtained in this manner can be of the same structure as the Poisson distribution. For large deviations we prove that signed-compound-Poisson measures enlarge the zone of equivalence for tails.

Sums of independent random variables concentrated on discrete, not necessarily lattice, set of points are approximated by infinitely divisible distributions and signed compound Poisson measures. A version of Kolmogorov's first uniform theorem is proved. Second-order asymptotic expansions are constructed for distributions with pseudo-lattice supports.

Abstract In this paper we will build a bank model using Poisson measures and Jackson queueing networks. We take into account the relationship between the Poisson and the exponential distributions, and we consider for each credit/deposit type a node where shocks are modeled as the compound Poisson processes. The transmissions of the shocks are modeled as moving between nodes in Jackson queueing networks, the external shocks are modeled as external arrivals, and the absorption of shocks as departures from the network.

Sums of independent random variables concentrated on the same finite discrete, not necessarily lattice, set of points are approximated by compound Poisson distributions and signed compound Poisson measures. Such approximations can be more accurate than the normal distribution. Short asymptotic expansions are constructed.
