Define what it means for a random variable to have a Poisson distribution, and find its moment generating function.
Suppose are independent Poisson random variables with parameters . Find the distribution of .
If are independent Poisson random variables with parameter , find the distribution of . Hence or otherwise, find the limit of the real sequence
